# You can buy it in the pubs for vastly inflated prices
but from the shops, stuff stronger than 4.8% you can only buy 9-6 during the week and 10-2 at the weekends. (Might be 10-3 at some branches.) That's from the store they call the Wine Monopoly, which as its name suggests, has a monopoly on wine, along with everything else stronger than 4.8%. Stuff weaker than 4.8% you can sell as late as 8pm during the week and 6pm at weekends! Fancy that!

I'm moving back to Blighty soon. It's an enjoyable novelty, being able to buy wine on a Sunday evening.

# That would mean I would have to buy much more drink than I need, then I'd go on to drink all of it and end up in trouble, hospital, prison or all 3.
Buying drink before 2pm is not good for me, I'm unable to have drink in the house without quaffing til I drop.

# This is precisely what happens
although normally "trouble, hospital, prison" for me equates to "bathroom at 3am throwing my guts out" or "crippled by a morning hangover".

# An alternative explanation being "you live in Liverpool"
or somewhere in the environs

# good point

# :)
I feel I should be grateful that my parents moved me away from the Wirral when I was a year old, and I'm told that's *posh* scouse.

OK, townwards.
