Recession, What Recession ?.

Looking at the packed tables in The Lamb last night made me wonder if Silverton is immune from the effects of the world recession. Eating and drinking seemed to be continuing undimished and apparently, people were being turned away. Perhaps people have decided that with the recent cuts in the mortgage rate they can afford to continue to have a social life or, perhaps its a case of eat, drink and be merry for tommorrow we die. Odd to see the pub so busy the night befor Valentines Day though. Perhaps its because the England v Wales rugby match is on the day itself and people wanted to enjoy the game.

Perhaps Rugby now takes precedence over love. Perhaps watching England scoring a try is now an acceptable alternative to scoring in other ways.
