Why some pubs deserve closing

From The Telegraph:
The three soldiers and one Royal Marine were refused entry to Phatz bar in Maidenhead, Berkshire, just hours after hundreds had gathered to pay tribute to Rifleman Daniel Hume at his funeral in the town.
Apparently, it had to do with their being in uniform, which the management took exception to. That's the "Phatz" (wretched name and so is the logo) bar in Maidenhead. I shall make special note of it and make sure that I never cause a penny to go their way.

    And Tommy that
    And 'Chuck 'im out, the brute!'
    But 'Thin red line of 'eroes'
    When the guns begin to shoot

    Oh, it's Tommy this
    And Tommy that
    And 'Tommy, if you please'
    But Tommy ain't a bleeding fool
    Tommy knows what Tommy sees

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
