A friend on mine says "laws are only guidlines" as he speeds down the road. I don't agree with that but some do.lol I once had a new postmaster tell me the same thing. "The contract is only a "guideline" and I can do what I want". A few grievances later (that the PO lost), he did come around.

Pretty sure they have had one for some time, just not really enforced.

We were often told, with regard to drinking ages on de islon, “if you’re old enough to climb onto the bar stool, you’re old enough to drink!” But it was said very much tongue in cheek and usually only by the bartender who had already thoroughly assessed the age situation of the person in question. Well, with a few exceptions, perhaps........

Trust me, Elizabeth - I feel your pain and I get it! We so enjoyed that last afternoon and our limited time with you and Jeannie. And the wine!!
