even more reason not to go out at night times

I don’t understand the title of your thread Infoman
“Even more reason” ?
Can you explain what this reason is, and what are the others please 🤷🏻‍♀️?

Survey just published stating that Brits are going out later in the evenings than they did before.
I do recall trying to stay out till the sun rose,not any more though.
I will leave that to the young guns now.

What time would be later in the evening? It’s meaningless without some context.
If your going up clubbing your not going to go out at 8pm because your going to still be there at 2/3 am.
Where as if it’s just the pub it probably would be 8pm.

We go out for a drink a couple of nights a week. We're going to do it while can. Obviously we are careful where we go.

I don’t know anybody who has curtailed evening socialising, I think most of us have always been aware of potential dangers and not traveled alone late at night.

Where does this information on ‘many people’ come from Judy54?
I know a fair few young people, in their thirties and their socialising, particularly at this time of year, is carrying on as normal.
Our granddaughter, 18, went out last week with a crowd, they caught the bus back to our village about 11pm. My daughter is out at a naval ball next week with friends, taxi is booked for return at 1am.

I am meeting my sister in London, will travel up by overground train and get a black cab to the theatre (I do not travel on the underground)

One of our favourite (probably our goat ) books has been dramatised and showing at the National Theatre. We also have dinner reservations afterwards.

I was going to return home by cab and train, but have decided to book a car and driver to pick me up from the restaurant (local to us driver we know and use often)

If DH and I go up to London on our own or with AC and/or GC we always get a driver both ways. It’s quicker, cleaner and far more comfortable.

When we go out to dinner locally one of us drives, anything over a two miles we use taxis. I do not feel comfortable on public transport, find it dirty, smelly and noisy.

Many young people are concerned about going to Christmas work Dos in the evening and getting home safely. Some are asking their Employers to put safety measures in place e.g groups travelling together, sharing taxis etc. It is so sad that the enjoyment of getting together with colleagues is being taken away due to concerns about safety on our streets.

That’s a rather strange and dismissive statement, fancyflowers.

What's strange about it? I was commenting.

I think Infoman has been watching the police documentaries of town and city centres late at night?

Terrible waste of police time sorting out drunks and results of?

That’s a rather strange and dismissive statement, fancyflowers.

Seeing as I'm in bed by 9.00 at the latest, I won't be going out at all at night.
What other people want to do is irrelevant to me.

Not sure why that's a reason not to go out, Infoman - please could you explain what you mean?

Thanks
