Not just pubs; it was also off-licenses. The Thursday before at my local supermarket was always like the apocalypse, with people panic-buying booze.
There were some weird exceptions to the rule, too; in particular you could buy alcohol on trains.
And in train stations and airports!
I kinda miss the old Good Friday laws, it made it a great day for parties as all the pubs were closed.
