Is there a policy on kids ?

krappyrubsnif

Try and avoid having them

samwatsonwood

No, kids are welcome.

dion

For all the non-grammarians out there, note how important the use of the comma is in samwatsonwood's sentence.

andy

Whilst the comma is correct, the answer given is incorrect. *Ali: Is there a policy on kids?* *SWW: No, kids are welcome.* There is a policy on kids. The policy is that kids are welcome. Therefore the correct answer is yes. This is off-the-scale nuclear pedantry, for which I apologise. I know it makes me appear incomprehensibly tedious, but I know you love it.

Actually, if we take samwatsonwood's "No, kids are welcome." as a response to Krappy's post the grammar is not incorrect.

This is off-the-scale galactic pedantry, for which I apologise. I know it makes me appear incomprehensibly tedious, but I know you love it.

Reg

I love it

tosscat

The response is correct to the 'policy' question - 'No, there is no policy, kids are welcome.', 'There is no dress code, you can wear jeans.', I have no dietary requirements, feel free to serve celery.' Meh.

ShaunG

hmm, not sure I'm loving it.

David

Still, pedants, that looks like a cracking line up for a local event no? I'll be nosing around for sure.

dion

"No; kids are welcome."

Donna

I don't know who Pamela is, but sure, I'd love to meet her.

Ali

How did it go ?

David

We (Petra & I) liked it. Didn't have enough time to stay and hang around, and was hoping for a bit more art than was on show, but all in all a lovely little set up for a free local event. Thought the haystacks around the band stage was a nice touch and the layout in general fun. Unfortunately was going on to eat elsewhere but the Garufa steak burgers looked yum.

Alex

It was good. The [risotto](http://www.sporeboys.com/Pages/wearethesporeboys.html) was very tasty, and [mojitos](http://twoblindpigs.blogspot.com) went down well. I liked [Rosalind Davis's](http://rosalinddavis.blogspot.com) pictures of buildings. I may not have drunk quite enough mojitos to get on the same wavelength as the [Scottish Weirdos](http://www.myspace.com/scottishweirdos), however.

poxy

I thought it was great. There was a friendly crowd all enjoying themselves and some of the artwork was fab. One piece I particularly liked - made of old machine parts - looked exactly like one of my friends. I wanted to buy it but the £300 price tag was a tad steep for an impulse purchase.

The food and drink were also very good, suffice to say we went on holiday early the next morning with very thick heads. That Japanese beer was strong stuff.
