For a minute I thought by the thread title it was about Sam smith the singer banning swearing at his gigs,ha but yep let's get back to those long lost days when in a pub and you swore and the liscencee asked you to leave,the good old days of drinking in pubshttps://www.theguardian.com/lifeand...pub-boss-anti-swearing-crusade-sacked-on-spot
discuss (without swearing?)
If you are in a working mans pub in the back streets of Manchester then it is unlikely that anyone will be upset too much by someone swearing within a group provided I suppose it doesn't get too boisterous
However if you are in a pub where there is a dining area and in it some loud mouth uses the c-word at every conceivable occasion that's different, especially when you have children present.
I agree with most of that :thumb:Agreed, though it should be clear what kind of pub you're in pretty quickly and if you've got any sense you'll moderate your behaviour based on that. If it's a family-friendly pub (is there anything worse?) then keep it clean. On the flipside though if it's a grown-ups' pub don't bring your kids if you don't want them to hear some fruity language. Actually, don't bring them at all. A pub is no place for kids.
However without 'family friendly' pubs that do food, many pubs would have gone under years ago.
And that's a fair point as well. :thumb:That's a fair point. Too many parents are quite happy to get ****** up while their kids run riot in these places though, that's my main gripe.

Or leave them outside the pub to their own amusement while they get ******,seen it far too many times,something as a beer lover I never didThat's a fair point. Too many parents are quite happy to get ****** up while their kids run riot in these places though, that's my main gripe.
Weddings are an exception!
That's something I despise is when parents take the kids to the pub and get ****** while the children run about.That's a fair point. Too many parents are quite happy to get ****** up while their kids run riot in these places though, that's my main gripe.
As for swearing most people do it at though there is a line to be drawn due too vulgarity.

At home my kids seldom hear us swear unless they are in earshot of a heated discussion and my kids don't swear as none of them like washing up liquid ðŸËÂHorrible ain't it? I can hand on heart say my kid has never heard me or his mam swear in all his 14 years. The way some folk carry on, swearing is just part of their vocabulary. There's no profanity in this house; we just won't have it whether there's kids around or not. At work is another matter - it's almost compulsory but I can effortlessly switch between work and home attitude without any thought.
Not the old soapy mouth wash :lol:
