rich-joy Obit: The Death of the English Pub. (59* d) RE: Obit: The Death of the English Pub. 23 Feb 09


Down Under (yes, I realise this is about British pubs!), breathalysers certainly changed the drinking habits of Australians - as did ALL the above-mentioned things!

Then they turned over the bars to horse racing on TVs and TABs (for betting) and worse : POKIES! (or "one-arm bandits") where you can lose all your hard-earned, without having to interact with anyone, just a row of noisy machines ....
Are you also blighted with these in Dear Old Blighty???

Good Luck, mates. The British pub is worth fighting for!!



Cheers! R-J
