Don't disagree.

Still don't see why the government should tell me what times I'm allowed to buy alcohol, abnd what times I'm not.

Don't most of you 'political correctness gone mad' types usually grumble about the current nanny state? Would have thought you'd welcome government letting people choose when they can buy a drink and when they can't....
