I went along for a couple of hours this evening and the turnout seemed very low. Indeed by about 8pm the numbers had thinned quite noticeably. As far as I'm concerned it was all very pleasant but I doubt that Camra high command see it that way. The drop off in alcohol consumption is well documented, especially amongst the young and for whatever reason far fewer people seem to want to enjoy a midweek drink. I was nattering to one of the bar managers who said the the early part of the week is indeed getting quieter, then everything concentrates on the Invasion Of The Dickheads on Friday night.
Times they are a changing.
