Extended hours
Are any of Hertfords boozers actually taking advantage of the licensing hours extension thingy?
As I see it, you need to pay staff ****e loads over the odds to pay for a period where the boozer might make 40 notes to house drunk-monkeys. Who is going to embrace this outside of beer festivals and New Year?
That said, I do Feel a lot more cafe-continental. That's because Sainsburys have bought our very own Sacre Couer. If only my amble to Botsfords went through Pigalle.

I think a lot of them now open later on a friday and saturday night, but my understanding was, that due to the financial facts that you eloquently point out above, most of them didnt feel it was worth while at other times. There are a few exceptions on Thursdays aswell i beleive!

It saves a whole heap of ridiculous administration on the licensing front. Any landlord who wants an extension for a private party or special function such as a beer festival, will tell you that.

If a pub needs to extend its hours over and above its licenced hours, a Temporary Event Notice (TEN) still has to be applied for at least 10 days in advance of the event, as we did last Friday. It costs £21 from the licencing department of the EHDC. This is in addition to the annual licence fee which has just been renewed. Only a certain number of TENs are permissable per pub per year. Bank Holidays, Christmas and New Year etc., are already covered by the main licence.

I think per premises, 12 per year, per personal licence holder 50, and for a maximum i believe is round about 500 people.

We have 15, so I guess it depends on the licence and what was applied for and actually allowed.
