I'm not sure about making it a legal requirement, simply because it would give the council people something else to poke around for. You're right though, it costs very little to create something.

I know most pubs don't, but I think we should follow the Isle of Man's policy of it being mandatory. Yes, another piece of legislation, but hopefully not one that would cost much to implement:)<BR/><BR/>I wish you wouldn't keep calling TM a "great guru." I keep reading it as "great gnu."

I've had my winter hours posted at eye level on the entry door since the middle of November, and I still get people pounding on the door at 1:30 PM on a Monday wondering why it's locked.Brewers Union Local 180https://www.blogger.com/profile/05786517873195170945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2446074078505386356.post-53530457887976829822009-02-19T16:51:00.000+00:002009-02-19T16:51:00.000+00:00"Now you must excuse me because the forum pointed ..."Now you must excuse me because the forum pointed out that every pub should display it's opening times. I agree, but we don't, so I'm off to make a sign."<BR/><BR/>Ah. It's the simple things that trip you up. Thanks for your thoughtful comments about the pub trade and beer. It isn't a simple business. It is a 24 hour a day, 365 days a year job. When I am asked why I don't do it, that is the reason I give. It takes someone special (or who doesn't understand this) to do it and someone passionate and much more, to make it succeed. Keep it up Dave.Tandlemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06804499573827044693noreply@blogger.com
