Sounds like someone is just trying to find out where all the holes in the wall are without actually asking....

Once you have a licence...which isn't as easy as I thought....can you buy from either MMI or A&E? Or just the one it was issued from?

No BC...different place, the prices are a few dhs more at the Centuar place but factor in the time it takes to drive to Barracuda then it works out the better deal. The only problem is that sometimes they don't have the wines you want in stock.
