Closing Time...

TB was rather sad to hear the news that his favourite lefty watering-hole is calling last orders at the bar, ringing the bell, and locking up for the last time. In these tough economic times, caused by Gordon Brown's recession, pubs are closing down at record rates. There were twenty nine pubs a week shutting down at one point this year, but TB never thought
Sadie's Tavern
would go under.

Sadie's blog was good before lefties realised they needed good bloggers. Sod Draper, Labour should have looked to her to lead any online charge. A combination of serious, well constructed argument, biting sarcasm and gin always made for riotous read. The blogosphere is also at a loss with out its top totty too.

TB wishes the landlady the best of luck in the real world.

Sadie's tavern is probably the only pub closure that can be blamed on the recession. Previous economic slumps irrespective of government political persuasion have not affected the pub trade adversely. Try looking up 1st July 2007 and why pub closures accelerated to 54(Not29)a week.
