  Thread: Children in Pubs
Post: RE: Children in pubs

Just to add that I have problems with this assumption that families are automatically going to be a 'civilising' influence on the rest of society. The example above should tell you that's not always t...

Post: RE: Children in pubs

In response to an earlier point raised: A friend and I did say something to a group of children at the Dulwich Wood House who were using sticks to bang on a bin by our table, pretending it was a d...

Post: RE: Children in pubs

Doesn't seem particularly fair on the children. What about the bedtimes of older children who aren't simply going to fall asleep in a pram? Haven't we already established they get bored and fractious ...

"But my gripe is with the attitude of some who think that there's some sort of need for the type of 'adult pubs' that I describe, and in particular I'm annoyed local authorities using licencing to ban...

Post: RE: Why Why Why do people not move down in trains?

But sometimes there is absolutely no room to move anywhere, let alone down the carriage. Especially on a Monday after overrunning engineering works have messed up the morning services. It's a bloomin'...

Post: RE: Direct services from FH to London Victoria

Overall it seems that even with the introduction of ELL we're not going to be much better off in real terms.

Post: RE: Direct services from FH to London Victoria

I'm not very happy about losing the link to Victoria and if have to go via E. Croydon, that will take us outside zone 1-4 - so will allowances be made for that?

  Thread: Children in Pubs
Post: RE: Children in pubs

I see the subject is causing a bit of hoo-hah as usual. But just to add that I'm a reasonable adult who is too long in the tooth to go clubbing - so people like me need somewhere to go too. As muc...

Post: RE: Children in pubs

Fair enough Elizabeth, I can't speak for everyone and perhaps there are some who really don't like children no matter how well they behave but that's not been my experience. I think most people I've...

Post: RE: Children in pubs

Also sometimes we do need an adult only space to let off steam and dare I say it use language or talk about certain subjects that aren't quite savoury for children's ears. I realise the pub market...

Post: RE: Children in pubs

Blimey how did asking for a bit of consideration translate into hating children? Previous discussions on here inevitably produce the same reaction. I think there is a problem with the behaviour of ...

Likewise, Greenwich is usually fairly quiet I find, even at weekends.

Try the Arches in Greenwich. Not that easy to get to from HOP unless you have a car but I put up with the journey without one 'cos it's worth it. Nice pool - always at least 3 lanes free for adults at...

I have to travel to Shadwell fairly regularly and decided I'd probably try changing at Bank for the DLR. It looks quite a straightforward route, although I know Bank can be busy. I never find it quick...

I've been inside Six Pillars as some friends were looking after it recently for the estate agents. It's like a maze of small rooms leading on one from the other. I found it slightly claustrophobic ins...

There are some valid viewpoints being expressed on all sides of the debate. . It's great that FH is making some improvements but it's also fair to say it's not all good and I've sometimes noticed a ...
