The owner of a 400-year-old pub in Oxfordshire went berzerk on New Year's Eve after his staff refused to serve him an after-hours drink. He found a "JCB digger" (context makes it clear that this is some kind of heavy earth-moving machine) and demolished the building — the staff had to run for their lives.
"The staff refused to serve him," said drinker Simon Jones, who was seeing in the new year at the pub when the whole building shook. "They were closing up, and when they told him, he became abusive. It looks like he has decided to give up a pub trade and go into the demolition business." Another villager said: "It's always the same when he gets drunk, but he must have been really bladdered to trash his business."
