Did you leave of your own accord?

I have not left yet. I have just helped myself to another free coffee refill.

Don't understand why bouncers would chuck you or anyone out Brian when only drinking coffee.

If this is standard behaviour, no wonder pubs are going bust!

Why did you say "I have been in a Wetherspoons pub" instead of "I am in a Wetherspoons pub"?

George Carman would have jumped all over that mistake.

I fear that we are not in possession of all relevant data in order to draw any meaningful conclusions.

The only data I usually need to judge the likely quality of a thread is the user ID on the opening post.  :)


Despite that I can't resist a read though. Silly I know but there we are. ???

Somebody told me they were there till closing time and nobody was thrown out. I expect the bouncers did not get paid.

Maybe the bouncers did a very good job, of keeping the troublemakers out in the first place, so you could drink your coffee in peace.

Well nobody here has seen Brian but from what I recall of pub bouncers they were more concerned about upholding a dress code than anything else. I was refused admission years ago for wearing trainers :(
