    The Wetherspoons in Lancaster

    17 people arrested after massive punch-up

    Didn't a prominent OTF regular used to be manager or something of this pub? Had to raise a wry eyebrow when this was the headline news on Rock FM this morning.

    The man died. Further to this, another fella was stabbed/bottled. Town has gone pretty bonkers over it all, or at least the chief licensing officer has. The Lounge, a late night venue round the corner from The Sir Richard Owen (there are two Wetherspoons in town, I was at the Green Ayre, or "bottom 'spoons"), had two police on the door as well as a metal detector on Saturday.

    There's probably a serious point to be made about drinking/licensing legislation, and how it doesn't seem to do anything about heavy day time drinking, but I can't get worked up enough about this to make it.

    As an aside, despite not having worked at Wetherspoons for years, I still get referred to as "the one who used to work at 'spoons". It's fairly upsetting.
