Confused.

Post by papafarang » October 31, 2021, 7:17 pm

Just wandering through FB and I came across for a bar/restaurant down south .the odd thing is it advertised ' Happy Halloween' . isn't that like saying happy death ? Happy decay ?, OK I know its all BS based on nothing but retail sales. At least Christmas has some reasoning, your celebrating a birth if you believe. But happy Halloween? You got to be kidding

Hard to believe that two of UFES's finest with the best part of a half a century of life in LOS between them have publicly come out as confused about the rules and laws as they are applied here.

And yoy forgot to mention to gov of Patters has continued the alcohol ban in restaurants until further notice there
Bet he's popular with all expat food & bev retailers
Perhaps he has shares in 7/11 :-"

It's a good analysis with some humour too but the Happy bit has some history to it: https://www.cbc.ca/kidscbc2/the-feed/wh ... -halloween

The booze bans will all mysteriously vanish mid-November.

Remember you read it here first.

It is when you think of all the places in LOS, they would have jumped at the chance to sell alcohol again
