A local pub is in the news because it has posted "rules" for children on its premises:
No children under the age of 10 to be in the pub after 6.00 pm.
All children must be sat at a table with adults whether eating or not
No free roaming, running, scootering or climbing
Parents are also asked to be mindful of other customers if their children start screaming and shouting.
The landlord was interviewed on local radio and he said he recently had to quickly scoop up a child who was in front of the kitchen door just as a waiter came through with platefuls of hot food.
One parent complained saying the rules put "too much pressure on parents"
I think it sad that any establishment has to post a set of rules which are basically just good parenting anyway.
