    Thanks. I didn't know that, but you would figure that they would try to limit the access to alcohol since they're blaming house parties and street parties for this latest lockdown.

    There'd be anarchy if they did that but it'd be one way to quell the socialising. They'd have to announce it out of the blue after 10:00 some night to avoid the throngs of people emptying out the shelves.

    What sort of person only has one pair of pants?
    And how often do you split jeans? You sound like a serial offender.

    With children in school parents need to be able to purchase uniforms, shoes, coats, hats etc. Not thought through by the government

    I feel clothes shops should open with safety in mind not a couple of big chains selling a bit of ppe to get around the guidelines i agree people still need to buy at least the basics .

    Yeah and next any nice food, soft drinks, juices etc. Sure people can survive on gruel and water, anything else is a luxury and non essential. That will definitely prevent people dying from covid.

    Well sure weren't people complaining about people unnecessary purchases during the last lockdown like easter eggs.

    Give em what they want, nothing beyond bread, milk and eggs for a week and they'll shut up quick enough.

    Here's an indication of what a total ban on the sale of alcohol leads to.

    Dunnes online store has basically next day delivery if you’re stuck.

    Many smaller places are worth trying & can be fast too.

    And the usual big online brands are often very quick.
