    Well here is an idea to ponder. What kind of world might we occupy if pubs had never actually been developed?

    Original suggestions will receive a star. Now there is an incentive

    Is alcohol allowed in this situation? We'd all have to bring our own beer and meet in a hall or centre or someone's house. If there was no alcohol then we'd all be meeting for tea and biccies:).

    If pubs weren't invented, you'd probably be allowed drink almost anywhere! Either that or not allowed drink at all

    If pubs hadn't been invented I could become an entrepreneur. I was going to say 'pioneer' but that might convey the wrong perspective altogether

    It would be pretty much like Italy, or any other country with no drinking culture!

    Mind you the lack of pubs doesn't stop the Italians drinking. Portugfal and Spain is like that too but there is a bigger tradition of drinking wine in cafes along with coffee etc

    Is that 'drinking in the Jax' or 'drinking in, the Jax?' Just kidding.

    Farmers would have to hire bouncers for their fields.

    It would be just like it was in the olde days.

    Sitting around an open fire drinking with your mates, clubbing women over the head and dragging them by their pony tails back to the cave.

    Pretty much like OXEGEN and Electric Picnic.
