    I also think they should

    1:Raise the law for entering pubs to 21
    2:Raise the driving age to 21
    3:Raise the voting age to 21
    4:Hang all the poor people
    5:If no 4 not possible then enforced sterilisation
    6:Stop anyone poorer than me driving vehicles on the road
    7:Introduce Cathedral for anyone over 70
    8:Shoot anyone who does not agree with me

    HTH

    You sound like the sort who looks forward to tidying up.
    Proper mans pubs are smoky with sawdust on the floor.

    Have to agree with you EO, the pubs up in Scotland are so much nicer now they are smoke free!

    Cant wait for the total ban to come down this way (although given Englands ability to stuff up simple legislation lets just wait and see! ).

    I hope they ban seating in pubs.

    Only woofters need to sit down whilst knocking back the booze

    nothing ruins my night more than sharing a pub with a bunch of drunken football supporters yelping and punching the air whenever a goal is scored
    Aye agree there. It even bothers me from the pissing pub about 30 doors up the road at 1AM thanks to the bloody late closing thing.

    Hopefully they will ban drinking in pubs too. People being drunk really spoils my night out.
