There’s f**k all money in pubs unless there is a good food to go with it…..food is where all the margin is.

And even that falls down if you don’t have a half handy chef and serve decent grub.

Gone are the days of the busy free house owner going down the wholesaler and buying the cheap spirits and then tipping them into the Smirnoff or Jameson bottles on the optics, mass lock in’s, the masons having their weekly meeting in a function room and people generally going to the pub……plus there isn’t the cash about now either.

You don’t need to be able to add up in your head as you pour a round these days ! lol 

One of the Walker brothers had a big house round my old way in Essex and a garage down the road if my facts are right.

Literally just home from playing some skittle matches and beer at £5:60 a pint in my little local town in the south west is getting beyond a joke. Pubs all over town empty can’t see them sticking it to long the way it’s going. Glad I’m moving house out to the countryside and just worry about my mrs little girl  and dogs. Nothing is worth bothering in the town for put my hard earned into my new house
