No I didn't and have no plans to go boozing in a crowded pub for the foreseeable. If I want a drink I shell have one at home.
No. Iād rather have a couple of friends around and sat distanced than be in a room with others who may not take things as seriously as me.
No but I'm not a big pub goer anyway. Plus I can't see how you can socially distance
Hell no. I am utterly disgusted with the pictures from around the country last night and then watching Matt Hancock on the news this morning saying āhow pleasedā he was about last night. Sickening.
I rarely go anyway, and definitely wouldnāt currently. Walked past a couple of my locals on the way to the shop - social distancing was not being followed. The restaurants seemed to be taking it more seriously (spacing out tables and having clear guidance) but I probably still wouldnāt go. Seems weird that thereās supposed to be a celebratory mood when itās not over yet
After saying all week that I wouldnāt, I did 
My housemate works in the pub, I went to collect the dog and ended up staying for a couple of drinks.
I felt safe-ish in that I was sat at a table with one other friend and because I knew the bar staff they brought my drinks to me. But the overall vibe was that a social distancing was a joke, there was lots of hugging and kissing. A couple of people tried to shake my hand to say hi and scoffed at me when I said no thank you. I wonāt be rushing back.

No, Iām not a pub person really. I prefers bars that play music as I like to have a little dance but Iāve read bars are not playing music or not loudly?
Yes and have the worst hangover and awful hangover blues about what I said and did. Loved the pub but havenāt missed the awful feeling the next day.
I went out to a local micro brewery for a few pints which is absolutely huge (itās in a barn) so social distancing wasnāt a problem, the tables were all more than 2m apart and there was hand sanitiser stations everywhere. Also it was very airy as they had the front shutter up. We originally said we werenāt going to go out but it got to 5pm and we had FOMO and are weak willed 
Social distancing was non existent in the pubs we passed in the village when we went to collect our takeaway.

I havenāt missed the pubs since lockdown. Used to go every week for a few but Iāve desire to go anytime soon and Iāve saved from not doing so. Iāll wait another few months before I eat out but it will eventually be nice to eat a meal I havenāt had to cook but all the same, Iām in no rush
No, although as soon as I feel it's safe enough I'll be first in the queue to get in
Yes, went for a pub meal. It was really quiet, in fact I haven't heard of any crazy busy pubs by me but it's quite a small town. We booked in advance and have our details on the door.
I live alone and have barely seen anyone for months so I am excited pubs are open, but I'm sticking to pubs I can book in advance for now as know numbers will be limited there

As I posted this thought I should also answer the question.
I used to do bar work for years and my mum also runs a social club.
I never went out as I have a young child.
But after seeing the pictures in the media of Soho bars etc it scares me to think that people are no longer social distancing.

When alcohol gets in the mix, people tend to relax and let their guard down - so social distancing goes out the window. I would rather wait till the virus is practically eradicated before I go to a pub - especially in the evening.
