There are tons of quarantine and lockdown stories floating around on the internet, but here is one that will knock your socks off. Friends, Steve Pond and Dom Townsend, who share an apartment in Stoke Newington, north London are living right above a pub. Even though the pub is now closed to the public, the two friends are living it up in the pub premises with ample to do.
Of course, they would like to head out and do more, meet their friends, eat out at their favourite places, and more, but as of now that has to wait. The pub is currently empty, with upside-down chairs, and lonely bar counters. But the two friends are doing all they can to keep it alive in there; after all, they have access to its beer taps.
All of London’s pubs are currently shut due to the ongoing lockdown. As of now, the lockdown in the UK was extended for three more weeks on April 16. The United Kingdom has seen a total of 165221 cases of coronavirus, with 26097 deaths until now. The death toll is the second highest in Europe, and this requires an urgent check.
