    But it's far colder in early November and the pubs were closing at 22.00 last year. The government imposed this to restrict alcohol consumption, not of course that people would just drink faster. If Timbo wants to close at 22.00, he'll lose custom to other pubs - his loss, not that it'll affect me. And last night it was incredibly hot here, parks overflowing late into the night with drinkers wearing T-shirts and shorts, me desperately regretting having gone out with a jacket on.

    You could sit inside in November.

    True. But most probably wouldn't want to sit outside. That said, it's nothing like as warm today.

    Why are they closing at 22.00? No curfiew restrictions cited here.
    The 4 nearest Wetherspoons to me in London always have to close the outside space at 10.00 .Its part of their licence due to noise so the garden part is only licenced till 10.00

    Quite right. I suppose I am failing to adjust to re-opening. Of course many outdoor venues will have to close earlier than the pub, which is going to be a pain.
