Yes, back in August where, by my experience of living in London at the time, things were actually looking like they were going back to normal in terms of being able to socialise.

The pubs were back to normal except had to sign in when you entered and it was table service only. I have about 5 pub apps on my phone.

Yes, in August after a long period of lockdown, when schools were due to go back and when Whitty had warned that the UK was at the limits of lockdown easing: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/live/2020/jul/31/uk-coro...

It was at that point that the government (and the right wing press) were trying to get people to start going back into the office (and when YouGov were publishing polls that showed that the age group most in favour of people going back into the office were the retired).
