I don't wanna come over all 'thou shalt not' but I think this is a recipe for disaster.. how many will see it as an opportunity not to be missed?
It's one thing when alcohol is always available 24hrs a day, but when it's 'special dispensation' a lot of people will take advantage of the opportunity who otherwise may not.
I'm gonna take me telly and hide whilst we're still in the world cup... which won't be for long

Oh happy days. When (years ago) I used to work in Kuwait I would sit amongst the suits in the shuttle lounge at Manchester Airport at 6:30 in the morning waiting for my flight to Heathrow and onward to the dry wilderness, getting a few pints down my neck and attracting the kind of looks usually reserved for things dogs leave on the pavements.
