Although Sunday afternoon was very busy - even I had to serve for a while - my view was that it would be like the first day back at school after the summer holidays for some people.

There is only so much civil liberty clap trap a humble publican can resist absorbing before taking French leave. In my absence I was advised that the inconspicuous warden had been spotted by all the customers from a hundred paces and one had snapped him on camera. Maybe it was sitting alone, dressed in a civic suit drinking a pint of tap water which gave him away.
