Liz Truss is the MP for La Chartre sur le Loir? Do the French know about this? Suppose that why she does so well at foreign stuff

Several of my companies have had a weekly beer trolley. Several I know have have free bars every week. Certainly I have had many meetings which were accompanied by, or attached later to beer / wine.

That was the New Zealand culture and not a good one in my opinion.
Having a few drinks straight after work was the norm there.

It's should be, so much to answer for...as the saying goes.

It can blur lines, yes. However only once have I ever been aware of issues, and that was actually at a formal party

There’s more than one to choose from, Swiss factory canteen Ive been to had wine with lunch as well. I’ve heard Glaswegian ones serve beer but I think that’s more of a breakfast thing

Many's the time I've had a light beer over lunch with Swedes in what amounts to a work restaurant.
