18 Things That Will Happen If You Visit Scotland

18. You'll Panic Buy Alcohol At 9.55pm

In order to cut down on binge drinking, Scotland has introduced laws that alcohol cannot be sold before 10am in the morning and after 10pm at night. So if you work different shift patterns, there will be times when you just miss out on being able to buy some alcohol for your pre drinks before your big night out. You need to plan ahead if you're going to miss the deadline, otherwise you'll have to go to the pub instead of having a night in with a bottle of wine. So it's 9.55pm and you have five minutes until the alcohol deadline. You'll probably panic buy and pretend that you're in supermarket sweep. You got this.
