How do you see the role of community pubs changing? What are you seeing? Do you think that it's always been this way or are we seeing things adapting? Simon, what are you guys?

Simon CollinsonGUEST
I think what has happened is, I think, you know, sort of, I don't know, even sort of, you know, 20 years ago, it felt like 20, it's probably 30 years ago, you're in this situation where, you know, coming back to what I said before, you know, every cross-section of people would come into the pub and have, you know, and usually have a couple of pints.

Simon CollinsonGUEST
And you'd end up with lots of different people using them, lots of, you know, just popping in.

Simon CollinsonGUEST
And I think what has happened over the last 20, 30 years is I think people have taken it for granted that, And then I think people have gotten out of the habit to the point where they just feel that pubs are now full of people, generally young lads in shiny shirts watching football, and not very friendly environments to be in.
