IT'S a busy time up on the moors for Britannia Inn landlord John Mallan.

Since extending the opening hours of the Oswaldtwistle establishment to all day on Saturday John, who hails from the Wirral, is serving on average an extra 30 meals a day.

It means there is little time to rest for John, 39, and partner Emma Jones who run the pub, and the 20 staff they employ.
