I never feel comfortable in the pub on my tod, I don't really see the enjoyment of it, but many people do.
Do you just chat to the barman/regulars and make friends? Do you quiety read the paper?

Not bein' funny, serious question, open to the floor... I reckon i'd quite like a place that I could fuck off too when I fancy a change of scenery.

Ovbously if I drank too, i'd get more out of it. But I feel the same about resturants.

han solo down the pub is shit, you could always bring a book or a tablet or whatever, but it would still be shit. Propping up the bar asking strangers diabolically shit questions in an effort to not feel so alone in the world is even shitter

Christ. Can't think of anything worse than trying to start random conversations with randoms.

I know a bloke who props up a bar in Rathgar in Dublin from the moment it opens to the minute it shuts reading papers and stuff
fair do's he's retired, but he must be bored out of his brains to do that every fucking day

That's quite sad. Probably no family or anything.

I wouldn't go out to eat in a restaurant on my own, other than grabbing a quick bacon sandwich on my way to the office.

Depends. Sometimes I play around on my iPad or read. Sometimes I meet up with people.

Wouldn't you prefer to do your ipad/reading though at home? I don't mean the socializing, can totally see the benfits of a pub for that.

I like to have a change of scenery.

Is it the same pub most of the time?

About 60% of the time.
