As we all know recent rises in gas & leccy charges have had us stocking up on candles,and it seems some of our local boozers are feeling the effects too.Last weekend,on a rather cold & damp Saturday i visited a few pubs only to find no heating on intwo or three of them,& needless to say,no customers in either.What can a land lord do? If he's no one in hes not going to put the heating on,and no one will want to go & spend what little spare cash they have sitting in a freezing pub.
And they have'nt even banned smoking yet!Hard times ahead for the licencsee.
