The problem J is that kids today behave nothing like we did. They have so much money now but all the want to do is get out of their heads, and this is as a group, something that only used to happen occasionally back in the day. So unless they get loud, and I mean LOUD music, lots of the opposite sex, that's all they seem to want today. Something old George sitting at the same table he has for the last 47 years making 3 pints last 4 hours, isn't going to put up with!! I can't see any answer. Will there be any clubs left 10 years from now???
