Anyone who doesn't maintain at least an 8 week supply of booze at their home is no friend of mine.
8 normal weeks? or 8 Armageddon weeks?
There's a difference?
for some of us

For me the only difference is what I own up to...

@mariner4life , see above in relation to your earlier question!

@mariner4life see I've been in the UK too long. I don't get not having booze in the supermarket.

Same in Oz. But the bottle shops are right next door and owned by the supermarkets.

@antipodean sure but can you get it at the dairy? When I was in brissie last year and only had one expensive bottle-o nearby. And it typically closed early.

What @chimoaus said. I haven't really worked in hospitality, but from friends that own/ run bars and restaurants I understand that the easiest way to get a liquor licence here is to sell food, or just booze. Anything else is a right PITA apparently.
Happy to be corrected if anyone knows otherwise.

Was it an expensive one or just normal price which is expensive compared with UK (and NZ)?
The Woolies bottle store chain make you go and buy a bag from Woolies if you need anything to carry your beers in.

Hanami season here and Tokyo parks were packed, as usual.
Wife was in Tokyo and said people didn't seem overly fussed. Crowds weren't hectic either when she went out to capture some cherry blossoms blooming.
People are much more worried about the Oympics being postponed or cancelled though - the news that the Canadian's won't send their team will be all over the news this evening.
As if that would make a difference to the medal count.
