    No need to qualify it.

    Not exactly. Drugs are definitely not legal, here, unless tobacco and alcohol count as 'drugs'. Besides, I'm still alone @ home, it would have to be a very solitary party. I do have enough coffee, though.

    Coffee is very important. Glad to hear you're stocked up.

    Coffee is key. I stocked up on coffee, cigars, scotch, vodka, nice bread, and drugs . You can live on that.

    I tried to find info about how countries manage their border lockdowns -- if anyone finds better sources, feel free to update.

    (And it's absolutely not true that the reason why I wanted this info is to know where it's safe to place orders for stuff...)
