Quite agree Matt. The pubs on the High Road are nowhere near as busy as they were 30 years ago when you had to fight to get in on a Friday night. It's hardly surprising there is a shrinking in their numbers. It is silly to expect them to be run as a public benefit to prettify the High Road. Use it or lose and we haven't used it. I have had a drink in there a few times and it was a big soulless place with no decent real ale, lots of slot machines and big screens showing sport - it is good that CAMRA work to preserve pubs but sometimes you should pick your battles. The P&T will be no great loss it is hardly the Tabard or the Old Packhorse which are worth a pitch battle to save. |
