Already do that, birthday boy, no, taking the tenancy of the local boozer.

Given most Dr's are heavy drinkers this could be a mistake. Don't drink yourself to bankruptcy eh?

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Sat 5 Jul 2014, 19:09, Reply)

No, I won't, the current tenant is sick of it, and it's a good price. It'll be long hours, but I'm up for it. Just have to see wife and accountant.

You'd be lucky to make twenty grand a year for a 60 hour week.

^ this, although if you live above the place you save on living costs.
I know several people that have lost everything by taking on a boozer or a restaurant. Massive gamble. I wouldn't do it.

We own our own place, there are quarterscover the boozer.

You were moaning that your surgery was now open on a Saturday. ..
You know that pubs tend to open on weekends as well, yeah?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sat 5 Jul 2014, 19:35, Reply)

And tend to close rather late, then you have to clean up, cash up, bottle up for the morning, clean the lines etc.
If a pub closes at 12, last customers leave by 12.30, then you've got two hours work minimum. Then an early start in the morning (well, 8am) to receive deliveries, manage payroll, VAT & other paperwork before opening at 11am.

Most pubs can't afford the staff to do all of that so it falls to the gaffer.

Part ownership would be better
Put in some capital but find some other person to run it

Very few pub partnership deals like that available from the breweries these days.
EDIT: profitable ones.

No brewery would do it, I agree

So buy the bigger share! No grunt work, no giving up day job - unless it turns a massive profit

Only an idiot would be a minor shareholder in such a low margin business, so I doubt he'd find an investor, apart from maybe a family member who knows fuck all.

If you write the menu that'll make the place a winner.
