Wetherspoons introduces drink limit for parents

The J.D. Wetherspoons pub chain has introduced a limit on the number of drinks parents can buy when taking their children to the pub. A 2-drink limit has been introduced to prevent children from becoming bored and disruptive.

A spokesman for the chain said, "We don't want a situation - and nor do many of our other customers who don't have children - where children are either sitting there or running around or maybe causing problems."

Well would you believe it?

We don't impose limits on the number of drinks that children can allow their mummy and daddy – but we do insist that they drive them home and tuck them up nicely in bed when they've finished their dinner.

And if they don't finish all their dinner, they get no puddings.

What is the world coming to!!
