UNATTENDED children "using sauce bottles as water pistols and parasols as javelins" has prompted a Bradford district pub to take action.

The Wrose Bull, on Wrose Road, Wrose, took to Facebook to issue a plea. 

The post says customers' drinks have been knocked over in some of the activities, which in addition to the two mentioned above, include "using menus as frisbees". 

In a message, the Wrose Bull says: "We are proud to be a family venue, however unfortunately we now have to put out the following request…

"Can we ask all parents to ensure they are aware of what their children are doing at all times.

"In the last week we have had to stop children from using parasols as javelins, using sauce bottles as water pistols, playing football in the beer garden resulting in knocking drinks over whilst people are eating meals and using menus as frisbees.

"We politely ask all parents to monitor their children at all times please."
