Usually 1 or 2 odd bottles of beer in the week max.

Then Friday or Saturday, if I'm going to a party/do... Anything from 10-30 units. Too much sometimes.... 2x year maybe go away on Tour, then continuous drinking for 2 nights and then feel like death for a week.

I'm a student, while I probably drink too much for ideal health, I drink a socially agreeable amount in comparison with my peers.

I've managed to cut down to very little during the week (the odd glass of wine), a bottle to myself on Fridays, constant from 2pm until I fall over Saturdays, and around about a bottle of wine Sundays.

It used to be nothing during the week, then pretty much none stop 6pm Friday till I fell over Sunday afternoon.

Health wise, I'm not doing too bad ; )

Usually nothing at all Monday - Thursday, and a night out on Friday (every 2-3 weeks now) can range from 6 beers to well in excess of that.

On Saturday and Sunday I usually have a couple of beers in the evening.

I am cutting down on my consumption on nights out now, my tolerance is now far too high for my liking and if nothing else it is bloody expensive.

Average week? Normally zero, but if I feel like having a drink it could be 10+ units all usually within two or three hours on the same night, such a binge drinker.

I guess in average 4 bottles of wine (between two) a week, a couple of large gins and the odd brandy/whisky.

It is only Tuesday however, and today has been a large gin, a bottle of sparkling white (between 3) and a bottle of Red (again between 3) - this week may be above average....
