Interesting, never heard of that before! > > And then - this is probably a US term - what is an "off license"? See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off_license#Off-licence As I know them from the UK: A shop (often smaller) that sells alcohol: wine, sparkling wine, beer (in cans), ... Usually with self service, not meant to drink the alcohol in the shop.
