Your just using the finances as an excuse to be fair.
If you REALLY wanted to go and spend money you would!
Do you forfeit the weekly shopping because Tescos won't allow you to smoke in side?
Apparently we've 'ruined' New Years Eve for about 20 people because we won't allow them to bring their kids to the pub and then abandon them while they get w4nkered.
Try being the poor sods - bar staff up and down the country - that get the idiots in that state in the first place.....
For the record I'm not working, I doubt the pub will be open much past 10oclock either
