For the first time ever and at the grand age of 60 I'm sitting in a pub alone enjoying a glass of wine. Feeling a little feral but I did it 😅

Love it! Hope there is a second one coming :)

Why not! I love indulging myself by going to a fav restaurant or coffee shop. Sometimes with a notepad or book to ponder on.

LadyDanburysHat · 23/12/2024 15:28

Good for you! Enjoy it.

TheEyesOfLucyJordon · 23/12/2024 15:28

Good for you, OP 😘

I'm a similar age and I do it as and when the mood takes 🙂

There's a lady who I often see in a fancy yummy mummy cafe. She's 70 ish, and sits there every afternoon with cocktails and the Times crossword. When I up grow up I want to be her

I'm 40 and I love doing this! I get a chair by the fire and have a couple of pints reading my kindle. Lovely!

jeaux90 · 23/12/2024 16:03

53 and love a pint on my own.

34 here and love a drink on my own. I'm having one right now in a lovely tap bar!

Cheers OP! I enjoy doing this too, but with a hot drink in a cafe. Here’s to many more afternoons in nice pubs.

Likewise but maybe with a few Newfoundlands. And a mid-1980s Mercedes.
