Popular South African actors queue outside liquor store in Johannesburg

South Africans are super excited that liquor sales will resume from 1 June, but for home consumption only.

Two South African actors, Francois Jacobs and Altus Theart, and their friend Nico Swarts spent the morning outside a liquor store at Brightwater Commons. 

The three ‘masketeers’ arrived at 05:30 and are planning to purchase brandy and beer for the first time in two months.

The friends made a plan by being armed with masks, sanitiser, camping chairs, and a crackling fire as winter is approaching in Johannesburg with temperatures dropping to 6°C.

Jacobs chatted to Breakfast with Martin Bester about their early morning and assured the Breakfast team they are being safe. 

Are you making a trip to your liquor store today?
