ha!In Bavaria they have this weird law that if petrol stations sell booze, they can only sell it to people who arrive in cars - not people who walk in off the street.
A friend who lives across the road from a petrol station popped over the road to buy a bottle of wine and they refused to give it to him on the grounds that he didn't drive there.
So he went back across the road, walked up 5 flights of stairs to get his car keys, walked back down, got in the car and drove 20 metres to the petrol station and bought the wine.
It's something about 'protecting the youth from the evils of alcohol'.
I begged him to construct a life-size cardboard cut-out of a car and 'drive' in carrying it.
In other news: 'ning b3ta!

"Do you know they're building three new Mental Hospitals in Europe?, one in Portugal, one in Belgium, and they're putting a roof over Bavaria"
