"Consumption of alcohol is a privilege and a pleasure". And finally, I am among the privileged circle, because I'm over 18! Yesterday, the confirmation came in the form of one of my 18 + card, which I can now identify in pubs, Liquor stores or just in the supermarket as an adult. was simply not the way to this very official plastic card. Besides a lot of personal data had to be a justice of the peace confirm that I am actually myself, postal officials also catched my passport and my Kiwi housemate was on record that he me for more than two years as the person I purporting to be known (at least the last part, however, was unnecessary and volatile due my reading of the form).
And why is this 18 + Card necessary? Because New Zealand is required at each corner for a proof of age, be it in beer sales in supermarkets or bars entry to the evening hour. Student ID, German driving license and other cards count or not require endless debate and do not necessarily lead to success.
PS: The introductory phrase is taken verbatim from the letter accompanying the card. For me, the more sounds like an invitation to drink for a sustained note to all now 18 ...
