Do I need to cut my hard working hubby some slack?

[GirlsMummy2]

My husband is a hard working guy and works long hours (out the door by 6.30am and not home most nights before 8.00pm).
We have two young daughters (3 years and 7 months) who he never see's.
He recently stopped working Saturdays which has been nice but he still insists on going to the pub every Friday night in the village. He usually gets there about 7.30pm / 8.00pm and gets home (very drunk) at closing.
I say he should be spending more time with our girls, he says he deserves downtime and he spends quality time with them and me every weekend.
I've asked him to cut down how often he goes (once, twice a month) but he refuses. What should I do? Keep nagging him to not go as often or just expect this is what he does?

If he goes to the pub for 7.30 - 8pm then he wouldn't be seeing his children on Friday night, really, as presumably they would be in bed? How does it impact on the children?

However, do you get an equal amount of time to do something for yourself? Not going out necessarily, but some time for you to do what you want. If you do then that would seem fair. If only he gets to kick back and relax then that isn't reasonable.
