The individual responsible for the premises must also hold a personal license. As far as the concern of alcohol, premises licenses can be categorized into two different kinds:
- on-licences : allowing consumption of alcohol on the premises.
- off-licences : alcohol must be removed from the vendor's premises and drunk elsewhere.

I came home and ripped off every one of the really lovely refrigerator blossoms that were sewn on my own bodices.”

“The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which someone found and hid; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.”
