    Pub Lock In

    Was up in Wales visiting a mate over the last week. One night we went down his local for a few pints of Brains.

    At 11, landlord declared a lock in and said everyone could smoke. At this point some twot kicked up a stink and stormed out threatening to tell the council.

    What would you have done?

    Edit: I quit a few years ago but my attitude is live and let live.

      I don't smoke or drink so I'd probably phone the police

          If you are not drinking what the heck are you doing in pub?

                I quite miss the fug of an English country pub tbh.

                In other news, 12 pubs a day are being forced to close.

                  I remember one local that had regular lockins and the police knew about it,

                  There were a few trouble causers in the village and the best way to keep them quiet on a Friday or Saturday night was to let them drink until the early hours.

                  It worked very well.

                    I thought you were only the barmaid on Fridays ?
