This is a question Weddings Part II

Attending a wedding is like being handed a licence to act like a twat. Oh how I laughed when I sobered up and realised I'd nicked most of the plates and cutlery from the posh hotel lunch and those vague memories of stealthily exiting like a cat-burglar had in fact involved falling out of the hotel, knives and forks clattering onto the steps.

Tell us more of your wedding stories.

Corporation manager Mark Hobson said: “We’ve had some of the local authorities say they don’t like it. It’s not illegal to sell four shots in one drink, but stopping that means customers may spend more time buying smaller drinks.”

It was illegal prior to the licensing changes in late 2005, and now isn't.

2003 according to this

"Selling spirit measures in more than a treble was illegal under previous licensing laws.

But when the 2003 Licensing Act came into force, that was scrapped."

The 2003 licencing act came into force in 2005. It was the reform that permitted '24 hour drinking'.

bollocks. you could sell bottles of spirits if you wanted, although at pub gross percentage margins those sales were rare.
