Or the back door at mom & dad supermarket. The word on the Gov grapevine is the Whole country will go dry shortly. Booze wholesalers will be closed down so even Mom and Pop cupboards will be bare. Best stock up while you can. Its going to be a long dry 4-6 months if not longer. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deprive the masses of the little bit of enjoyment and stress relief they have. Are they inviting a crime spree? What gives here? Where is the sanity and reason?

You really believe there has never been a solitary drinker in a crowded bar? Time you brushed up on your terminology. During Songkran the only solitary drinkers are falangs, but being one you are never going to agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Customers will only be allowed to buy a maximum of two slabs of beer or cider and 12 bottles of wine in one transaction as part of a national booze limit active from today, a voluntary initiative from the industry. https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/liquor-stores-impose-booze-limit-from-start-of-trade/ar-BB11VEve?li=AAgfYrC Edited March 31, 2020 by Russell17au 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All jokes aside, my late brother used to have a bottle of whiskey in the morning and whatever was available or he could get his hands by the evening, i.e. another bottle of the whatever helped send him to his grave at 49, a really sad disease, way to go and painful for loved ones to see. Everything in moderation ✌️ Sorry to hear about your brother very sad indeed. I'm 48, in my younger days I was out all the time but I grow out of it. Only have a couple in the evening this is in uk But when in Thailand with the wife not much at all ✌ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midasthailand Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Absolutely ridiculous measure! If alcohol sales are to be banned it should be a country wide ban! People in this province will now travel to nearby provinces to purchase their alcohol thereby increasing the risk of spreading the virus!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get my wrong transam but there are some people who can sit and have a quite drink and socialize and enjoy themselves of which I have several friends but then there are those that cannot control themselves and they cannot handle having a quite drink without becoming drunk and annoying other people and even becoming violent.

It is a proven fact in Australia that domestic violence is 95% caused by drunken males That may be correct. It goes for drunken males. No need to punish the others who can behave. I am a regular drinker myself and by times I try to be all sober for a couple of days. In that time I believe myself to be okay, but the wife says I'd better take a couple as I seem to be getting grumpy. ???? A Thai man with a short fuse without alcohol can be as violent. Proof will probably show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are far too many obscenely wealthy individuals who want to protect their businesses. There might be one renegade province, but the rest of the Kingdom will continue to enjoy making those obscenely wealthy individuals even richer. So what if the little people die? As long as enough of them survive to keep stoking the profits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netzero Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Can anyone see any rational relationship between banning sales of alcohol and preventing COVID? Is the twisted logic that if people drink they won’t stay home or ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
