Fortunately the situation seems to have been resolved as, I understand, the Blue Bell now has a PEL.

Not too sure if that is correct. It is a little early for detail to filter through yet, but if the pub now has a PEL, does that really mean a satifactory resolution for all involved. Has anyone proved the activity required it?

Trying to ensure the licensee was not prosecuted was the first aim, it remains to be seen just how this little matter has been gotten around.

Thanks for all the nice things but the issue is not about me and although reading those nice things make a pleasant change, it does tend to wave a 'red rag' to the 'bulls' who can only seem to see it as a personal issue.

Merry Christmas to those of us who can make mistakes and misjudgments. The perfect ones among us, those who are without sin, can carry on throwing the stones.
