unfortunately not, if you are caught without a license and you are a resident, you are in trouble. However, i am unsure how much trouble precisely!

Them having a licence means they can drink their own. Technically, as a resident, you need a licence to drink alcohol...period.

drinking a bottle of wine in the comfort of your own home before bed is hardly crime of the century and who is going to know anyway!

Between the whole MP/VA thing, the Ozzie (or Kiwi) lass getting jailed etc etc.. It would not surprise me if they started looking more strictly at the alcohol crimes, but, as you say, staying in your own home and guzzling some vino gives them no reason to come knocking your door down.....

Blue Cat

exactly, we rarely go out, never drink and drive and never have parties so I think we are pretty safe with our stash from Barracuda

The Dean

It wouldn't help you with obtaining a licence.............

..........but it tells us a lot about your attitude to your religion.............

TGFKASE

Obviously not a recent convert to Islam then.....lol

This is where it gets really silly.

If your friends are non muslim and even if they have a licence and you were drinking in their house and for whatever reason the police came, your non muslim friend could be prosecuted for enticing a muslim to drink, happened to someone i Know not so long ago, incredible i know

Blue Cat

her first post made that quite clear

TGFKASE

Thats because we are the spawn of the devil, luring poor unsuspecting muslims away from the light.....

MataHari

so what about Muslims that go out and openly drink...what would happen if the police came to a hotelbar...would they lose their license?

Blue Cat

according to the law yes MH but it is never put into practice, obviously ...

Grace O Malley

yes and we are the cause of the worlds probs and we are all raving alcoholics and sex maniacs

Blue Cat
