Apparently, the change in Britain's licensing laws this time hasn't altered people's drinking habits!
Pubs, clubs and shops were all allowed to apply for licence to stay open even later than 11pm. As it turns out over a third of those that did were supermarkets such as Tesco and Sainbury's, with most pubc deciding it wasn't worth the extra cost and hassle of applying, and employing extra staff as well.
So the lesson is: 12 months isn't long enough to change 60 years of wartime-at-the-bar-ding-ding-quick-get-another-one-in-haven't-you-lot-got-homes-to-go-to drinking culture! I need a drink.
