And finally… drowning your sorrows
Reading time: 1 minute
A man from Rotherham has built a pub he has named the ‘Furlough Inn’ in his back garden with his cancelled holiday money.
Karl Heath built the pub in his garden while he was on furlough.
He said: “Our holiday this year got cancelled and I needed a project on furlough so I used the money to build a pub in the garden.”
Mr Heath, his wife, sons and friends take it in turns to go to the bar in small groups at weekends, BBC News reports.
The outside space has soft seating, lights and a hot tub on decking under the pergola, while inside is a bar with fridges and drinks, snacks, a TV and seating, and a dart board.
The entrance way is also kitted out with a disco ball.
The pub took less than three months to build and cost about £3,000.
