Featured Unpacking more glass totes wow

Really but red rubbers are cute

 

So true

 

and don't google red rubbers

 

Good old ebay and those dang television shows

 

OH DAMN never thought about that one. that could be a shock

 

It gets better. They were stretchy & I kept tearing them so they wouldn't stay on anymore.

 

For our British friends, we are not talking about erasers.

 

HAHA That's funny

 

I KNEW that Bronwen HaHa .. Joy.

 

My sister and I were visiting Ireland... now I have have been an avid fan of British TV for 30+ years, my sister has never watch it. So when we were driving to our rental cottage, saw a sign that said "Off Licence" and took a screaming turn into the parking lot, my sister said "What the hell is an Off Licence?"

When I told her it's British for liquor store she got it

 

How many Totes did you have to Tote?

 

Marie: There's just something a tad not legal* about the tern "Off Licence." Gives it a bit of spice!

(Not illegal, just not...quite...legal)

 

I've heard it in British shows & my American interpretation has been that it is a place that sell liquor after hours. Can we get a native speaker to help us out?

 

Thats stove and fridge are EVERYTHING ! Of course all the glass is lovely (and overwhelming!) due to the sheer volume Im not so sure an auction wouldnt bring her the most money.

 

Not a native speaker, but I'll help anyway, because I have a question I forget to ask every time I'm in England. One can only Buy one's liquor in a off license; one must go out (off the premises) of the store to drink one's wine, whisky, whatever. My question is: our liquor stores frequently have wine tastings. Is there a waiver in Britain for this sort of thing??

 

Is the deal you can drink in a pub but not take alcoholic beverages off the premises while at an off license you can purchase liquor but not drink it there? I know some states have/had 'package stores' that are something like this.

Trust a country where public schools are not open to the public to name the one legal place for buying booze the 'off license'.

 

Much as I'd like to help I never entered a pub in England .. I was 14 yrs old when my parents relocated us here, .. Joy.

 

So glad you weren't an under age drinker, Joy.

 

As I understand, you buy liquor that can only be consumed "off the premises" as opposed to a bar or public house which is licensed for consumption at the point of sale (on-licence).

 

Getting ready to go pick up some more right now. Besides her house which is packed she also has 2 storage's. That's what I am working on right now one of the storage units. Which also has spinning wheels in it. Just what ever she liked she bought. I am going to put some of the better pieces online and have an estate sale for a bunch of it also.
