Oh yes, that immovable feast created by newspaper proprietors for their own frivolously gains! 😆

I guess there's a public holiday, somber and religious in nature called, Good Friday.

I read there's also another public holiday in Germany that has similar restrictions; I think it's in October or November, something about mourning the dead.

How much modern Germany is a religious country I have no idea. But one thing for sure, the very strict separation between church and state that exists in France, is not happening there.

Unfortunately, this is the legacy of puritanism that has a resulted in an unhealthy preoccupation and condemnation of alcohol.

@hypolite I've seen it before myself, sadly. I think Silverwizard was precisely hinting at this.

I find this rather alienating from my own upbringing, where drinks were a normal social affair to be enjoyed in moderation in communal or family settings.
