Currently drinking large amounts of 'Goose Island Honkers Ale' Typically I drink at home and try to keep it to the weekend, although I slip of the wagon often and partake in a school night tipple far too often.

Moderate amount during the week, have been known to put a few away at the weekend. Largely good quality strong lager or red wine.

Almost always nothing. Occasionally lots, drunk through the final straw of my national identity.

I'll have a beer or two most nights midweek with dinner/watching TV, then weekends it's a couple of proper nights out.

Very little these days. None during the week, maybe a beer or glass of wine on a Friday but not much as I'm normally playing golf early on Saturday morning. Saturday night can be a little crazy as my latent rampant alcoholism can kick in. A few weeks ago I put away two bottles of red, six John Smiths and an amount of Vodka. At the moment I'm partial to Hanger One Buddha's Hand vodka, hella tasty.

Haven't you posted on this subject before?
Isn't it cool to talk about getting drunk and who can drink the most?

Every night. Be it a can of lager or two or a glass of vino or two.

Fridays and Saturdays....erm....and Sundays, I may have a few more than two with friends. But then again I may not. If Im not socialising, its likely just to be the same one or two I have every other night. Its a nice wind-down and I love the taste. So why not?

Missus thinks Im an alcoholic. I maintain that its my right as an Australian.

ETA: binge drinking sessions equate to no more than 8 pints. Not because Im responsible but because thats all I can manage before I run crying to a taxi rank. Im not into quantity. (Unless its a barbie)












Maybe I should see someone...

Right now, I probably drink something (G&T, glass of red, bottle of beer) most days which is a habit that I'm not really keen on.

Friday night, often have 5 or 6 pints of real ale or half a bottle of wine.

Pretty much don't drink anymore, usually nothing during the week, occasionally I'l have a pint or a mixer at the weekend if I go out with friends but I usually drive so either only have the one or none at all.

I'll have a night out and get a bit tipsy probably once a month at the most.

Have been like this for just over a year now, feel a lot healthier, makes the fitness side of things a lot easier and the calorie content of most drinks just scare me!

Probably the most loser of a 22 year old but hey ho I'm reasonably happy!
