....and there's a cutie sitting about six feet in front of me, who I'd love to take home and cuddle (and he's perfectly built for cuddles, not fat, but not skinny either, just - well, cuddly!) to within an inch of his life. I doubt either the boy or his parents would be all that keen on the idea, though!

YAY for eyecandy! I find it interesting that in England there isn't any problem at all with families bringing their children into pubs, though I guess the Pubs over there are more like cafes or small restaurants here, rather than bars (as we would think of them over here).
ReplyDeleteLast trip over I was surprised when a family came into the Angarreck Inn, and daddy ordered the 14yo son a beer (poor kid got a Corona - yuck). No worries. Try that over here and it's BIG trouble!
Peace <3

Hello Jay
DeleteNot all pubs, in fact not even a majority, are 'family-friendly', but Wetherspoons, as a chain, have decided that allowing family dining is a moneyspinner (a 180 degree change from their original policy, which was strictly over-18s only). There are still restrictions, though, usually in terms of serving times - my local allows families until 9:00, but others are more restrictive, 'domicile-ville' Wetherspoons chucked under-18s out at 6:00. As far as underage drinking is concerned, the official policy everywhere (not just Wetherspoons) is zero-tolerance, but rural pubs have always tended to be a bit more 'relaxed', especially amongst regulars - I'd be surprised if dad and son at Angarrack were first time customers, because trading standards enforcement tactics quite often involve using young people being sent to attempt to buy age-restricted items.
And as for the cutie, I stand by what I said in the post - I'd have loved to have given him a cuddle. Nothing more.
Love & best wishes
