The fact is that there are some pub landlords that cannot see the wood for the trees.

I was at the start of a festival last weekend. The pub was asked to get some decent beer in, in quantity and some extra staff. No matter how much you ask and warn people........

We were taking bets at what time they would run out of decent beer. 8.20 pm won. So they had the best part of three hours without any decent beer. Like many others I spent 50 per cent of what I would have done had there been any decent beer.
