For info on the day of action I tried the EFDSS Root Source website - but their link to their page about it didn't work for me. But I suppose that's the place to look anyway.

As for two-in-a-bar, we've been over this a few times, and it's still clear as mud.

The two-in-a-bar is an exemption of activities that would otherwise require a Public Entertainment Licence. That could mean musicians, comedians, jugglers. So long as no more than two are performing in an evening.

The question which has never been resolved in a court is whether the kind of thing we are talking about, people playing and singing, telling stories etc primarily for their own mutual social enjoyment fall within the category of activities that require a Public Entyertanment, whether in a pub, a coffee-bar or a barbershop.

That is to say, is the current law intended to prohibit that kind of thing - and if it is intended to do so, is that in itself consistant with over-riding human rights legislation?
