the greed of breweries has been going on fer many years,i worked a night a week in 2 pubs in the 90s, both landlords/landladies were friends of mine, did 6 years in 1, 3 years in the other, both had built the pubs up, after they were well quiet, the sole reason both parties left was the increase the breweries levied on em, but bad though things had got, fer my money, the smoking ban was the final nail in the coffin.
