Any entertainment is likely to force ordinary conversation to be louder, and therefore pass more droplets into the air. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

The government aren’t giving away millions to the arts and live music venues and giving them the green light to open up in September. June 2021 earliest unless a vaccine is developed and distributed.

I think some of the micro pubs might also close due to falling socially distanced customer numbers in often very small premises.

When you look at what people drink and who commits acts of violence it's correct. The term lager lout is a term that's decades old, and it's not without basis. Lager is drank more than 3 to 1, the more of the population that drink lager rather than beer then the amount of violence commited by lager drinkers rises Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Theres far more super strength lagers out there (like special brew) than there is beers, i also have been out with a lot of lager drinkers and i see violence commited by lager drinkers, by and large the local football fans i know drink lager too, and ive also seen violence commited by these.
