Cevap
The legal age to buy alcohol is 18. Socially, friends often take turns 'buying a round' for the group, and a bell is typically rung to signal 'last orders' shortly before the pub's opening hours end.
The statement correctly identifies that individuals must be 18 to purchase alcohol. It also accurately describes the common social tradition where members of a group take turns buying drinks for everyone ('buying a round'), and notes the standard practice of ringing a bell to announce 'last orders' before the pub closes.
