These ideas are contagious

If you've got a blood pressure problem don't read on.

Scottish Ministers have decided to make alcohol consumption the next big health issue for the Scots.

Sources have confirmed the plan will focus on reducing alcohol consumption among professionals who buy alcohol at supermarkets and drink at home without realising the harm they are doing to their health....Government advisers also want supermarkets to introduce separate alcohol-only aisles to make the purchase of wine, spirits and beer less easy.

This is Positively Monty Pythonesque

"THEY are smoke-free, family-friendly environments in which mothers happily breast-feed their babies while customers enjoy their drinks amid clean, fresh air. But for Scotland's political leaders there remains one problem with our pubs and bars: the alcohol.

Having acheived smoke free bars they are now after Alcohol Free Bars it would seem.
