As I got a bollocking from the BE for ignoring the "dry night" sticky at the top of the page, you can expect similar treatment, perhaps.

I was sure I had heard that the holiday for Mos birthday would be moved to the 17th to coincide with the weekend?

The holiday has moved to give a long weekend, but the 14th is still dry.

Also I can't stand this attitude of many expats who think it's their god given right to drink. Booze is the cause of many hassles if you ask me, so many people abuse it and then wonder why they get into trouble.

I also think it's tragic that so many people seem to rely on alcohol to have a good time, how sad must their lives be for that to have to happen?
