The general feeling is that MK Council have a 'sensible' attitude towards sessions, and have stated so unofficially. Knowing the landlord's famed reluctance to spend money I'll be interested to see how long it'll take him to acquire a PEL. Apart from the cost of the licence itself there will be an inevitable and expensive outlay on safety features and wiring for such an old (and cramped)pub. To be honest, apart from the Sunday session, the pub only stages music events half a dozen times a year, always for free, and I don't think it'll be worth their while applying for the licence.
