All the other bars/shops in the road had steps up. They didn't, and were generally brilliant. :)<BR/><BR/>I will use this as a positive example for all those shops, bars, museums, theatres etc that refuse to make their premises accessible because they think it will be too difficult. My Girl had an encounter with an artistic director the other day. She asked him why his theatre wasn't accessible. He said he'd talked to the local council about it, and they mutually agreed that to close down the theatre to make access arrangements would be "disciminating against 'able-bodied' people"...<BR/><BR/>The mind boggles.Naomi J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10918322634249814999noreply@blogger.com
