I'm sure most know Pubwatch exploits the right of a landlord to ban anyone, for any reason.


He's a teetotal nationalist so he won't care about not having a beer, but north of Brecon he will (with luck) die of thirst

Sounds like another Welsh Revival!

I dare say most of the pubs will  not open until the beer is permitted again . Forget about any compo or covid help though because they were not told to close .

I doubt many will open again full stop

Damn right it did. In the 1960s I spent some time in Cardiff's Tiger Bay where the limit of depravity was a nightclub that sold beer and Spam fritters and closed at 11 am. As I said, the Welsh really put up with a lot

In the 1960s my grandfather on my mother's side probably delivered that beer.....

Open the pubs but ban the sale of beer.

Nowhere in the world can there be a people as tolerant as the Welsh

Do not confuse tolerance with patience.

The very rural Buckinghamshire pub I used to use in my youth only served a cheese toastie, slowly progressed to a cheese and tomato toastie, and over the decades developed into a public bar on one side and a restaurant on the other.
It had been a until recently a family owned pub since the end of the 2nd World War.

Their lockdown didn't work so they are having another.

What's the definition of insanity again.

Gosh that took me back!
