Bells,
some as big as 20 kilos in size, are set to become a thing of the past now that
24 hour drinking is allowed in England. Ye Olde Bell Makkerf of London Towne,
a company that specializes in making 'drink up now it's closing time gentlemen
please' bells, is to end trading after 350 years in business. Owner of the
company, Pierre Van Hookenstraffer, made a tearful statement to the press from
his office in Berlin and said that all 50 Chinese employees in Bejing are to lose
their jobs.
