Tony Harries, from the Winefullness Magazine and Circle of Wine Writers, reflects on a challenging time for the hospitality industry and chats to publican Rob Smith. “I WAKE up in the morning and don’t know if somebody is going to kick me where it hurts,” says Robb Smith, a veteran of the hospitality industry and owner of three pubs, including The Vine Inn, in Black Notley. He seems to be representative of the growing number of people in the hospitality industry who think the Government has forgotten they exist. “I came here from South Africa in 1986 and walked the streets of Bournemouth, looking for work, before I realised the hospitality industry was for me,” said Robb.
