That's in pub of shouting people drinking and carrying on not some quiet establishment were he was shouting about it . Just in idle conversation 1 person to another in a busey pub . suppose your talking to your mate and said my eldest brither you know the one the slap head not the long heard one called in to day . and some bold bloke took offence would that be ok .

    Norbo.

    People, the public, within earshot of a conversation have rights too, they are sometimes included whether they like it, or not . They do not have to hear it and that is the point that the landlord is making. He is not saying that anyone cannot have a particular conversation, what he is saying that the conversation is not going to happen where he has any say in the matter, HIS pub,if others can hear it, and some one obviously did. That is why these conversations are best kept away from the public, at home.
