...are just plain annoying. Or is it just me?
Sitting, trying to have a quiet pint whilst a child bawls on the other side of the room is like nails down a blackboard. This is one reason why I avoid most chain pubs and try to go to 'traditional' boozers where kids just won't be. Its also a reason why I don't mind Embers - no kids under 14.
Mrs Staal and I have no children and I am very grateful for it. Does that mean I have a biased view? Is it a good thing that some pubs let 'anklebiters' in, thus allowing beer drinkers who would normally have to stay at home get out and neck a few, or should beer and kids never mix?
