The people working in the offies missing their last bus home. Nothing else.

 

[Squiggle]

it'll force people back into the pubs and clubs when they run out of booze back home

 

[Moods For Mallards]

Do yis think of nothing but the drink?

if off licenses are some kind of significant problem, then why did the government allow so many open over the last few years? two years ago there was probably one off license about ten minutes away from my house; now there are at least five.

hmm.

 

[Goodbye]

Offies used to close early.
Not a big deal.

You mean no more take away cans leaving the pub?

 

[Jill Hives]

I was behind a guy buying a lot of cans of Dutch Gold this morning at Spar, I figure he is making up for an early evening.

 

[nEiLo]

[David Kronenbourg]

i'm filling every press, shelf and cupboard, every nook, hole and cranny with cans of frosty jack tonight.

Mr Lenihan said on-the-spot fines would also be introduced for those found drunk or disorderly in a public place. Legislation passed in recent years – but never implemented – provides for fines of up to €200 for those involved in disorderly conduct or who are intoxicated in a public place. Mr Lenihan said this law will be implemented over the coming months.

that law about on the spot 'drunk and disorderly' fines is a bit ropey too. knowing the gardai and their tendency to throw their weight around.

You'll just have to pay carry out prices for everything. I believe article 6 of the updated legislation reads "Spend more money, mother fuckers!"
