Nanny state at its finest

that rule doesn't even make sense. you can simply order two drinks. absolute dumbest law ever.


In September 1998, new legislation was introduced in the UK which limited packs of paracetamol bought to 32 tablets in pharmacies and 16 tablets for packs bought elsewhere. Obviously if you really want to kill yourself you could just go to another pharmacy or supermarket. Surprisingly however, deaths by paracetamol overdose have been dramatically reduced since that rule was introduced.

Well if that's the case then I suppose you are right but I thought they were trying to restrict the total amount you could order at one time.
