Where in Calgary can I watch UK football with a baby.
 
I am trying to share the baby routine with my wife and give her a break by taking the baby out for a few hours at a time, I am a modern man and do all the feeding and changing bit too.

I realise the time differeance with UK matches makes it an early start, so it could be hard to do but this Saturday England play and I want to watch it if I can.

Past post suggest I think it is The Ship on 17th Ave, great but like everywhere else I bet I cant take the little one in. She is 9 weeks old so wont be running about etc.

Any ideas to where I should go.

Many thanks.

Been occasionally to the Drum and Monkey to watch Rangers games with my son (15) My mate attends with his kids too (youngest 8) Its shows Rangers games mainly as its an official meeting place for Rangers fans. EPL games are on other screens though. Most games are out with licensing hrs so maybe that makes the difference.

Recently when having satellite problems there was talk about transferring to the Ship and anchor

Did you know you can get all UK terrestial TV and all Sky channels uploaded via broadband LIVE to Canada, or any other country for that matter, directly to your TV or/and PC from these people - http://www.uktv2c.com/channelguide.htm .

It's pricey but may be worth considering.

It's legal BTW.

...and you'll still need to buy a UK TV License to watch this content outside of the UK.

CaptainHook...

Yes.

In the UK you MUST buy a TV license in order to be allowed to watch TV.

The TV license fee goes to fund the BBC.
