I'm drinking nothing at all. :( We've been under total lockdown for a month and a half here in Sri Lanka. I ran out of booze a month ago and the puritan Buddhist government isn't permitting alcohol delivery. :mad:

You live in Sri Lanka? Huh. I had no idea. What is that like?

It sucks. Colombo has been under lockdown since March 20th. 40,000 people have been arrested for going outside. They're supposedly easing the curfew on Monday, but that's been pushed back more than once already, and we're only going to be allowed outside for one day a week, and only to get medicine and groceries. Liquor stores won't reopen.

It seemed like the virus was on its way to being contained until a week and a half ago, when dozens, or possibly hundreds, of sailors (who were living in barracks together) came down with it. They're the guys who have been patrolling the streets and arresting people...

It's fine normally, though. Colombo is a relatively developed city with a huge English-speaking middle class.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

We'll all just have to live through Tim.

Can you send two crates, Tim?

0,5% beer, local grocery generic brand.  Close in taste to Molson Dry/Labbatt Blue.

2 months without going to a bar now.  I'm proud of me :P
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

7,300 won at a market, 9-10,000 at a convenience store. So, not bad at all for one bottle by Western standards (Koreans will think it's expensive since Soju is like 1,200). Still, two crates would be pretty expensive, especially with the shipping added.

It's been a while, but since it's lockdown time, back for some bagaço/aguardente. That's grape brandy (marc (de raisin) for the francophones), obtained through family connections.
