On the other hand maybe the punters simply have more drinking time on their hands in which to drown their sorrows.

Re: Cheers Steve.
The main street of the Basque capital Vitoria’s old quarter throws up one such case: Martin’s Bodega is 15 square metres of wall-to-wall wine. English owner Martin Beacham opened the shop in 2009 just as the recession was beginning to hit. At such a delicate time, it was a straightforward matter of sink or swim. Three years later, business is steadily thriving, though most clients are from the local area.
