It's a longtime ago now, but i think i'm correct in saying the hm's were in full control of the amount of money they could spend on alcohol from their shopping budget, and then drink it whenever they wanted to.
I can remember wincing at some of antics around the pool area, thinking any minute someone could fall and hit their head.
I can still remember the debate they had over the how to spend the final shopping budget which was a luxuary one.
Some wanted a 100 quid bottle of champers + cheap booze, while the others wanted to spend 30 quid on Champers to make sure they had enough booze to last them a week.
Needless to say they chose the cheap Champers.
