There are calls for the 8pm rule in hospitality to be scrapped. What do you think? Listener Marty in Derry tells Andrea 'Between 8pm & 8.30pm, in the pub I was in, I saw 9 buses - 52 seaters - full to their allowed capacity arrive into Derry, all Donegal reg. So, I think the Northern Ireland hospitality profession would be quiet happy for the restrictions to continue in the South, we are doing very well.'
