water in nightclubs?

[geeza]

Whats the law on this now? I went to vibealite last night and was reasonably sober. Loads of poeple had bottles of water, so i went to the bar to get a pint of water but then was handed a bottle of water and asked for £3 !! I said i wanted a pint but have me a tiny cup instead.

Also in the toliets the tap water is only warm/hot, im thinking this is to stop people topping their bottles up?

what complete ********

If I ask for a pint of water is it within my rights to demand it or not?

If they are selling alcohol they must provide free water, yes, if they give you a small cup it could be that they don't have a tap right there and have to carry the water in jugs.

thats it though. It came from a tap (i saw it) and there was small and large plastic cups. I got the small one though.

Yes it is, and a lot of clubs that i go to do this, Slinky in Bournemouth does this the most, its a right pain, other clubs will quite happily let you refill from the tap, but some are funny and switch the cold off, so you only have hot watter at a tap

ive drank hot water before in clubs, its actually nice when your as dry inside as a camels arse

One club in town has a small water fountain in the Toilets, its great when you dont want alcohol or soft drinks and you just what to wet your whistle.

and you can 'wet your whistle' in it too
