Thing is I come across as cantankerous or just plain miserable and grumpy. No pub business owner would ever hire me. However, when I ran my own pub it does work. Because I wouldn't give bigots an inch, because any hate speech got shut down people felt safe in my pub.

@ArtBrew@mastodon.art You didn't seem to be any of those things when we met a while ago. It was a good evening's chat.

@ArtBrew@mastodon.art Would you ever move from Reading? I have a vision of a nice brewpub in Wrexham, which I couldn't do by myself. The sort of place with antifash stickers everywhere in at least the toilets. I may have the money to do it in a year or so. I already have the customers and a suitable GM. Possibly suitable premises but I have no money yet.
