Why are fewer English people going to their local pubs for a drink? Are they aware that many pubs are shutting down due to lack of customers?

In the mid to late 20th century they added food, without the inconvenience of cooking it or washing up.

But now:

Back in the day (early 20th century and before) the English pub offered things you couldn’t get in a working-class home:

What were the first few days, weeks, months and then years like after finding out about your spouses infidelity? How did your feelings, and yours & their approach to the situation change in the immediate aftermath compared to later down the line?

They need to offer either food of a quality you can’t get at home (true gastro-pub experience) or alternative entertainments - live music, poker nights, sports viewing etc.

You can get takeaway or even cook yourself a wider range of food of good quality

The pubs with the best chance of survival long-term recognize that they can’t just get away with the same 3 beers, ropey wine and pub-grub. Why pay more for something worse than you can get at home for less?

Why does my intimate area “sweat” and smell so much? I almost have to have a shower everyday. How do I get rid of this?

You can get a wider range of quality drinks at lower prices from a supermarket

You have to understand what the attraction of the English pub was in the first place.

Entertainment (pre TV and radio)

Is there a musician who has publicly stated that they do not want their music played by the Trump campaign or at a Trump rally? If so, who and why?

You have 1001 sources of entertainment on TV and the Internet

Your home has more comfortable seating and a garden

A range of alcoholic drinks

Why are breasts attractive?

Comfortable seating in a warm, cozy environment, or a nice pub garden
