....when pub regulars are thrown under the bus of money-grabbing. In my local this evening - and Fridays are always busy here - more than half of the tables are reserved for a 'party', presumably having a pre-Christmas do of some sort. No doubt the management would justify accepting the booking on 'business' grounds, maximising earnings, and all that, and if you look at tonight in isolation, that's probably valid. But where do they think the majority of their income originates on all the other days of the year? From mugs like me who come in multiple times per week, no matter what date is on the calendar. As it happens, I arrived early enough to snag a niche in an unreserved corner, but I suspect there will be plenty of disgruntled locals over the next couple of hours.
