Walking from Newington Green up to Stoke Newington one afterenoon a couple of weeks ago, I thought that it might be a nice idea to have a pint or two. I passed six pubs and all of them were closed, none of them opened in the afternoon.
I can only surmise that it is not profitable for them to do so? or that the metrosexual middle-classes deem it too working class to get hammered in the afternoon, unless you're at the riverside in Putney drinking Pimms?
Not only are all the pubs closing down but the ones that have been gentrified don't fuckin open!
