Working tomorrow morning, and then there's Boris' legacy on Sunday, so that's a lock in from 5am.
Hilariously, the publicity for the event advises businesses:
"Large crowds are expected to watch the events at certain points along the routes. If you own a shop, cafe or restaurant in the area, you may want to consider opening on the Sunday if you don’t normally, or have extra staff and stock to handle a potential increased volume of customers."
It doesn't care about businesses that can't get their staff in to do any work therefore can't open, and even if they could open they are not beside the route so are not going to get any of the large crowds stopping by.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment
