This sign made me laugh. So the pub in question, The Griffin, has "the best heated smoking area in Whetstone with a big screen"...
Whetstone isn't exactly the largest area of London - so how many pubs there have a heated smoking area with a big screen? I am guessing just the one. And if there is more than one, what makes the Griffin's HSAWABS the best?
In other words: isn't it enough for the pub to boast that it has a HSAWABS at all? Especially as the Griffin also offers "the biggest beer garden in North London"...

I like the way "with a big screen!" has been added in small type - as if it was a bonus afterthought. Or maybe they found out about a rival heated smoking area in Whetstone that threatened to topple them from the top spot, so they added a big screen (and the footnote) to remain on top, on a technological technicality.
