It is but the bloke who started the thread is at fault for the whole thing. You don't let an 8 year old alone in a pub in Benidorm because you're going out for a fag
I disagree tbh, pubs on holiday are different to pubs not on holiday. When I was a bairn on holiday I chinned loads of fully grown mackems while my dad was out for a tab.
Would the pub not be a lot more dodgy when on holiday rather than your local at home?
