Spoons in Cleveleys, Lancs is busy at lunchtime every one having a good time eating and drinking. Lets hope its the same is true across the country.

Goldman Sachs - Berenberg - Peel Hunt - Liberum - Cannaccord give the top fund managers picks

Still not sure how this track and trace thing works in pubs does it mean if anyone was in on the same day as someone who later came down with the virus has to self isolate for 14 days, that could mean hundreds of people.

My bet is that the Sunday papers will be full of pictures of too full bars and bar queues. We'll soon know which way the cookie crumbles.

That is guaranteed

They have probably already written most of the story already!

The more they drink the closer they will become unless a limit on spirits and pints

They will have street and pub parties galore

[misca2] 02/7/2020 20:51

And no doubt it will be true

zztop, I am thinking I might retrain as a human rights lawyer/barrister as there could be a fair chunk of work coming their way!

More Big Brother than Animal Farm...Orwellian nevertheless.

[zztop] 02/7/2020 11:54

Unfortunately it's more than animal farmAnimal farm is mild to what's coming imoLet's start with mandatory vaccinesCorona passportsI could go on..

[mr.elbee] 01/7/2020 17:02

No one will go to any pub while the NHS test and trace police could pounce on at ANY time in the succeeding month....and then forcibly isolate you...at home now ...... elsewhere later.

The pubs are doomed until the mad Ferguson/Whitty restrictions are lifted, but they wont be............ 18 months for live music ,and other forms or entertainment, is the word out in the industry.

And Boris is worse than useless.

I am quite sure the fabulously rich will be having house parties from now on like there is no tomorrow.

Animal Farm anyone?

[essentialinvestor] 01/7/2020 13:32

Tim, complete guess here, but under £8.70 type of area would not be a surprise imv.

[tim 3] 29/6/2020 22:38

Indeed konradpuss.

Just reading some of the "rules" that some of the pubs near us will be implementing and all the things they will not be doing including entertainment, hardly sounds inviting to be honest but it could play into wetherspoons hands but agree its all about the numbers and higher overheads and limiting numbers will certainly be a challenge.

I for one will be going nowhere near a pub this weekend and will probably just visit at quiet times to start with but if the rules take the fun out of visiting a pub you might as well drink with friends/family at home or in the garden!

[konradpuss] 29/6/2020 22:20

Tim3, you are right. A little perspective is needed.

I do however think the new 'norm' will be costly for 'Spoons' as well as for all others. Plus three months of trading just vanished.

We must hope their value offer will shine in the coming recession/depression.

[scruff1] 29/6/2020 21:10

I was down the town this afternoon. Had a look in the spoons. Looked really impressive inside. I reckon if spoons cant make it there wont be many that do.

[tim 3] 29/6/2020 15:21

Dont forget this has more than doubled since the drop, way outperforming the FTSE a little pullback is to be expected.Probably need some evidence things are going well following the reopening for next move up.

[asusasus] 29/6/2020 14:00

Are you all selling up? Something just doesn't add up here.

[zztop] 29/6/2020 13:30

I feel Tim is guttedHe's put so much effort in, to see it taken from himCrazy times

[optomistic] 29/6/2020 13:11

Lot of uncertainty atm. Lots of us want to go to the Spoons but will enough of us be able to get in to make the turnover Tim needs...Good luck Tim we will do what we can to get the Spoons through it all.

[asusasus] 29/6/2020 12:59

What's concerning is that the FTSE is well up and this is down. Thoughts?

Louis Fitzgerald, a kingpin of the Irish pub trade, has bought the iconic Galway city pub Tigh Neachtain.

[zztop] 26/6/2020 12:57

Maybe Tim thinks after a few weeks we will all be in lockdown agrain to much effort opening hotels?
