 Booze prices. - Ted

I see the media is talking about the government's intention to ban the sale of cheap alcohol.
Our city already is looking to get a by-law to this end.

Now, no-one likes the situation in most town centres at the moment but what about poverty stricken pensioners like TTQ and me, who like an occasional, modest drink at home.

I've never been one to parade up and down the high street in me trolleys, swearing loudly and vomiting down the fronts of policemen. I assume the restrictions will apply to all booze, not just White Lightening and Wife-beater.
I certainly don't want to be paying £1.89 for a bottle of beer and the 3 wines for £9.99 at Lidl might come to an end........a tragic time for home drinkers.

I was in Aldi today and they had Spitfire and a pale ale at 99p.....just the job. Lidl have Marstons Pedigree at £1....This isn't the sort of stuff the yobs go for !
To this end, I have decided to stock up while the going's good. I've got 49 bottles in the beer shed plus a lot of home brew as reserve. Gonna start on the wine when me Giro comes !
Again, being made to suffer by the idiots in society.
