You sound like you,d be a real joy on a trip. Many pubs are often the center of a small towns social arena. Many , many business transactions take place. Jobs/work often found as a result of going to the pub. Some have huge amounts of charm and history. Like the Conargo pub--vast amount of local history lost. Many travelers welcome a cold beer/counter meal/ lemonade after a long drive. Many provide cheap accommodation as
well. I have great memories from many of the outback pubs I have been to. The characters you meet are just terrific.
Even if they build a replacement pub it never has the feel or atmosphere of the old one..Normally just another brick and mortar building.
Suppose if your house burnt down you,d undoubtedly say the same to your missus? I think not!!! Good to be flippant when it doesn't affect you eh?
