You're talking about your local shop I take it?
:?
packie: alternative form of "pakage store" which is the legal/euphemistic term for a liquor store in Southern New England (because the booze is sold in packaged form, as opposed to in a pub). In Massachusetts, specifically, the legal hours of operation are (8 am to 11 pm, Mon-Sat; noon-11pm Sunday), and there are three days of the year that they cannot open: Memorial Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.
Ahh, I never knew that, cheers for clearing that up with me dude, but as BangkokVilla pointed out, you can understand why I'd mistaken what you were talking about...
