***Council officials have raided a village pub after mistaking an attempt at after-hours drinking with the name of the band.
A trio of licensing officers and two policemen raided the Four Feathers pub in Laleham Surrey after an advert promised “music from 4am” but discovered that wasn’t the start of drinking time, but the name of the act. When they showed up to spoil the party they found a two-piece soul-funk combo instead of a late-night party.
