Man I cant afford to drink in a pub,I get it in the supermarket and drink at home.Then when I've had enough I can fall into bed and sleep it off.

I'd guess
"Last Call"
"Honky Tonk Downstairs"
"Shaky Ground"
"You Better Think Twice" (as last call approaches)
"I'll be Back Again" (after last call)

Well some of us prefer quality to quantity ! Guess I'm just saddled with a discerning palate ...

Well it does say a lot when 50 pubs a week are closing down.Fact of life, that culture is all but gone now.They stopped smoking in pubs and you cant drink and drive so people drink at home.

Yes, but they are either

1) cr*p pubs selling fake beer
2) owned by one of the Megapubcos, who have tried to squeeze too much out of the licensee

You're a real bundle of fun, aren't you ?!

I aint going to get into a slanging match with you.What planet are you on?.Pubs are closing down every day.

And I thought they were closing down because Gordon *&%#! Ramsay was the chef

Who the %*&$ is Gordon Ramsay?.

I think he's mates with that f*&(@ing Jamie Oliver !

I'm more of a Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall man myself.

Why don't you take it over and run it yourself Roger ?

Consider this
1) more financially rewarding than running a plant nursery
2) not such hard work as felling trees
3) better food than Wetherspoons !

plus Poco on the jukebox every day !

PS only joking
