In response to sarahlou84 ...

Nobody gets asked to leave without good reason.

I happen to be the manager, and the group in question were being rude towards the landlady after being asked to quiet down as they were becoming more and more noisy. They were also messing about with ornaments on the shelves and continued to do so even after being asked not to.
If rude, noisy and unruly behaviour is what they consider to be "enjoying themselves" then I would prefer them to drink elsewhere ..

As for the "clicky" bit, we are anything but!
Everybody is welcome as long they respect us, our customers and our pub.

So nice to see so many who agree with our children policy ..
There are plenty of signs up stating that children are welcome in the conservatory until 8pm (late enough in my opinion) ..
As for badly behaved dogs (see Jonnyholbrook comment above), we won't have them in the pub, we strive to make The Dead Poets a freindly, welcoming pub full of atmosphere, banter and character but what makes the place what it is are the customers ..

Many thanks for the words of praise! Keep spreading the love!
