What a glorified hovel. The foreign rude , socially inept grunt of a chap just barked that they were closed and it was almost five minutes before 6pm , with the door still open. Honestly if they cared so much about being closed before time they should have shut the door or maybe such people don't understand the full meaning of the word.
