Hi, nice picture of a MOG. I use to hate 'Spoons', In my eyes going into a town and putting pressure on other local pubs. But of course the pubs generally are not local, belonging to a large chain with shareholders, like Stonegate Pub Company, based in Solihull, but the company is registered in the Cayman Islands! My mate use to manage one of these 'Pubs' and once when he had a meeting with the area manager suggesting they do the same as Wetherspoons - but in bulk and therefore cheaper and pass the savings to the punters! He said that is what they do! But make it max profit to the Company. Unfortunately with the cost of beer going up £5.00 a pint (at least!) and people buying 12 pints for £12.00 in the local supermarket, i don't believe Inns/pubs have a long term life in the UK. But watch this happen, when the pubs are all closed down, you watch the supermarkets put the price up!
What a sad world, in the UK at least!. Going to work, and going home, no chance to socialise with the locals!
