There is no pub (or bar, or whatever) near or far where I live, and that's why I'm not a pub-goer. I have to drive into the city to go into a pub. Oh and I understood the old-school British pub is dying, with hundreds closing for good every month?
@helenS They are. Used to be the pillar of every community at one time where you could relax and meet friends, Maybe drinking habits have changed over the years what with rising costs. Where I live it was joked about being a 'dry town' because at one time there was no local pub, but now we have a few and the first one opened about twenty odd years ago. But I prefer to drink at home rather than go out anyway. Just a glass of wine. But I remember going to our local when we lived in London, it was all different back then..
