Cheap booze in supermarkets has been putting the boot into pubs for a few years now, time was you’d very rarely see a trolley with beer in, now it’s the norm. When the pubs started to struggle 10/15 years ago, perhaps longer, I suggested put a pound on a can in a supermarket and knock a pound off a pint in a pub, anything to turn the tide. It’s gone too far now though I fear and covid is another massive nail in the coffin. So sad if, like us of a certain age, you remember the pub being the centre of the community, the landlord a respected character and going out for a pint, a game of skittles or darts was a reasonably cheap night out and a great way of bonding with people. Sat at home nursing a can just cannot be the same but that’s what people seem to be forced into doing to the detriment of society in my opinion.
