Been missing the beer garden and boozy pub lunches?
You’re not alone. Just as the rest of the nation has been missing the pub, two-year-old Joshua Hall has been counting down the days till they reopen.
Joshua’s favourite thing to do is go to his local for lunch with his mum Chelsea Fagg, 26.
He’s been asking Chelsea ‘when can we go to the pub?’ for the last few months – so she knew he’d be happy with the Government’s easing of restrictions.
With pubs due to open on 4 July, Joshua can hardly wait.

A cute video shows Chelsea telling Joshua the good news – and him celebrating with a victory dance in his paddling pool, shouting ‘yes’ and punching the air.
Chelsea, a nursing practitioner, from Trumpington, Cambridge, said: ‘He loves going to the pub.
‘He loves having ice cream and chocolate cake and will say “mummy has her wine”. He’s very sociable. He loves talking to the people.’
Chelsea and her partner alternate with taking care of Joshua and on the weekends when she has him, she usually ends up going to the pub.
Obviously he isn’t downing pints or staying out late, but the toddler just loves the food and the company.
She added: ‘He likes to look at the menu and pick out what he wants to have, and he likes to talk to people on the tables around.
‘He was very upset when the pubs shut down. He had a bit of a tantrum. So he’s pretty happy now we can go.’
Joshua’s favourite meal is garlic bread to start, followed by fish, chips and peas, chocolate cake and ice cream for pudding, washed down with a Fruit Shoot.’
The video was filmed this week and Joshua has been pestering his mum to head to the local ever since.
Very relatable.
