A pub is till a pub..by any other name...7.30pm seems more than reasonable as the ''cut-off' time...varied people frequent a pub for varying reasons..maybe to let off steam..maybe just to get out of the house...maybe it just took 2 hours to get from London Bridge !!!!,.. whatever the reason, builders,bakers,teachers or law-makers should all be able to have a glass of wine or libation of choice knowing that they will not be disturbed by over-exuberant kids... or screaming babies.. surely that is what Cafe Nero is for !!:)...does that close at 7.30??? And who would their child around a load of drunken builders/teachers/lawyers anyway????;)
