There are 3 pubs within walking distance of my mums place that have closed in the last 5 years. Hardly surprising when a can of beer in the supermarket is less than a third of what it is in the pub.
It used to be years ago that beer was almost the same price in the off licence as it was in the pub, so everyone went to the pub to socialize.

Nowadays its 4 cans of beer from the supermarket and a takeaway and then go home and watch TV.
I had the perfect apartment in Norfolk, Virginia. An Irish Pub right across a four lane highway.

I ain't been in a Pub or a Bar in decades for the same reason Bloke. I couldn't pick up a woman back then and the ones I could pick up were so big me and two other fellers bigger than me couldn't pick 'em up.

Now if I pick up one my wife's nose gets all crooked.
Well,,,,, it's frowned upon anyways.

So, Ol' Kawhead sit's alone in a dark house listening to George Jones dranking whatever beer was on sale that day until he passes out so he can get back up the next day and go back to the same job that he hates earning a nickle above minimum wage froma raise he got five years ago . A burnedout shell of what use to be a man.
