"We're getting better at that now. So if there is a pub garden, a business that can open... mentally, we're all going crackers.

"Nick wouldn't you - I would open pubs. Let's get us out there! As long as we're not mixing too closely let's go and have a pint!"

Nick replied that he was "totally with him".

He said: "I think the country has been hugely responsible."
