... I know my heart sinks if you ever find yourself trying to have a bite or a chat in a pub and suddenly there's a group of dowdy frumps screeching away,
well dont go to that sort of place to eat or chat. i dont know as i havent been in that situation, but i dont suppose the food is up to much in the stag/hen haunts anyway.
or of course head down to Hove and avoid altogether
