Default Licencing reforms & the tube

Anyway - The question is... Will LU reflect this in extending
the time of the last trains? It's a bit pointless pubs applying

I suppose people will have to drink in a pub near home.


Or catch a night bus. Or cycle.


Without wanting to be a killjoy, it's an offence under section
12 of the Licensing Act 1872 to be drunk in charge of a
carriage. A pedal cycle is a carriage for the purposes of
this Act.

You might also find that you're a bit prone to wobble if
you're riding home from the pub.
