Title: R.I.P. the Pub... What about this.....
Post by: carper on 23 September 2007, 15:59:54
I've read all the posts regarding (R.I.P.the Pub) a good topic  ;) so what about this........ (this is all made up, but just a thought)
Smoking houses.... that sell beer etc...
Think about it, a pub shuts down for whatever reasons, (about to be pulled down to build 500 houses  ::), you buy the pub and land from the brewery. You wont have to do much refurbishment, it's already in there, but the sole purpose of it all is, your starting a new venture, a smoking house, somewhere where folks can go to have a fag, smoke, call it what you will.
You apply and get a licence to sell alchohol  ::) and there you have it. You could call it........ The Benson & Hedges Arms, The Cock and Woodbine, The Red End (lion ::)) The Dog And Roll Up, Halfway Tip(house) get the picture ?????
So basically, it's a legal house ( for smoking) but you sell beer, lager, shorts, AND NOT FOOD of any kind, unless you sell nuts/crisps, then you could have a nuts/crisps garden. The idea of a nuts/crisps garden, is so if someone is stood at the fag bar enjoying a B&H, and someone buy's a packet of crisps or nut's, you could say to them.......... would you mind going into the nut/crisps garden to eat your food, I'm trying to have a fag ere !!!! ;D

Just a thought....... Our lass, get us another tinny will yer  ;D

(I can see alot of Fag/Pub names following this............)

Smoking houses as such are banned - hence the closure of the hooka pipe cafes

personally I think it's all went to far, but there is bugger all you can do about it now. Anyway I think theres a wee loophole here maybe, as you are allowed to smoke in areas or structures with 3 open sides. Therefore, what you do is build a round pub, with all openable sides, or three quarters at least :y
