Was the same here. They opened up the pubs last Monday, lasted one day as customers totally ignored the social distancing and then all pubs were reshut back down.

That's what a lot don't get, it's a test and if you ignore it, the accessibility to do or have something will be take away again for even longer.

It's an odd one though isn't it. The whole purpose of a pub isn't really drinking (for most of us!), it is interacting with other people and meeting friends (with drink as the social lubricant, maybe!). If pubs are opened here with the proviso that you can only go to the pub with someone you are living with and have to stay 2 metres apart from everyone else (which is not even going to be possible in practice) then either people won't go, or they will go and break the rules.
