Re: Whittakers Arms
I wondered what that was when I drove past this morning. Is everyone ok? I know of a few people who drink in there...

Re: Whittakers Arms
Apparently somone got into the toilet with out them noticing and managed to call the police, the helicopter followed them as far as West Yorkshire but lost them in the fog! I believe the landlord took the brunt of it!
