I work in hospitality. Thanks!

Yes, 52, but... every time I go in a shop there are rules about where to stand, how to Q, how to walk or stand... I'd be tense that there were weird rules what to do in restaurants, too. Doesn't sound attractive, relaxing or fun.

MinesaPinot · 18/05/2020 18:33

Yes, can't wait! I'm 57 and DH is 66.

VerbenaGirl · 18/05/2020 18:38

I would, to a local independent restaurant we have eaten at for years and trust to take the right measures. Mid 40s.

FuzzyPuffling · 18/05/2020 18:39

No. Shielding group.

TellySavalashairbrush · 18/05/2020 18:41

Yes . Late 40s

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 18/05/2020 18:42

Yes- 33 and pregnant.

Rebelwithallthecause · 18/05/2020 18:42

Yes - 35

WobblyAllOver · 18/05/2020 18:43

Yes late 40s

Hobnobswantshernameback · 18/05/2020 18:44

Yes
Old enough to understand risk assessment

beachbreeze · 18/05/2020 19:11

Late 30s and yes, I would,but would depend on the situation. I wouldn't just rush there if they opened tomorrow, but if after lockdown the numbers weren't increasing I would.

Akire · 18/05/2020 19:16

No mid 40s. Any outdoor space, coffee shops, pub gardens have long been over taken by smokers. They have a right to do whatever. I have a right to find it annoying and sets off my asthma.

bulletjournalbilly · 18/05/2020 19:28

100000%

43

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 18/05/2020 19:33

Yes as soon as possible. 55.

1066vegan · 18/05/2020 19:43

No, sorry.
Early 50s.

We've been having takeaways but I don't think I'll be comfortable sitting with groups of people for a long time, especially indoors. I'm going to wait until infection rates are much lower.

SudokuBook · 18/05/2020 19:45

Yes, late 40s

EdwinaMay · 18/05/2020 19:46

Yes, 65. DH might be a bit reluctant though at 70.

GrapefruitGin · 18/05/2020 19:48

Yes! I’m 30.

Aragog · 18/05/2020 19:52

So long as it's safe to do so and I feel safe in the restaurant (I'm in the clinically vulnerable but not shielding group) then yes. I'm looking forward to it.

SomewhereEast · 18/05/2020 20:18

DH & I (late 30s) will be there like a shot!

bookish83 · 18/05/2020 20:25

No not yet- mid 30s
But I do have a newborn so that is why

I would sit outside, get takeaways, or any way of getting nice food though!

I would also want to pay fair prices and tip to ensure that staff and small businesses are supported.

Livingthecovidaloca · 18/05/2020 20:29

Yes, 40s

C130 · 18/05/2020 21:18

Not for a while. 40s

Lsquiggles · 18/05/2020 21:24

Yes mid 20s

QuixoticQuokka · 18/05/2020 21:26

Yes, mid thirties. Was in the pub for a last drink with workmates on the Friday night they shut.

NoHardSell · 18/05/2020 21:26

Mid forties

Yes, without a doubt, exactly as before
