A Wetherspoons employee accused a deaf woman of being 'drunk' because she 'spoke too loudly' while ordering a drink after her mother-in-law's funeral, her husband has claimed.
Sally Arathoon, 47, and her husband Scott, 49, visited the Wheatsheaf pub in Ellesmere Port with other family members after they had laid his mother to rest on Wednesday.
But when Sally went to the bar to order her second alcoholic drink and a coffee for Scott she was 'refused' service by a member of staff who told her, 'you're drunk, you're slurring', according to Scott.

'She had gone to the bar and she looked at me and looked mortified and her hands were shaking,' the father of three said.
'When I went over there was another girl there who said ''you're drunk, you're slurring''. My wife said ''I can't hear you, I am deaf''.'
