Supermarket asks man, 87, for ID

Thursday, January 25, 2007

The BBC is reporting how an 87 year old man was asked to prove he was over 21 when he tried to buy a bottle of sherry in a York supermarket. The former Lord Mayor of York, Jack Archer, said he was shocked - but flattered - when asked the question by staff at Morrisons in Acomb. Seems like a case of the rules regarding selling alcohol being taken too far - obviously he doesn't need to be asked.
