Don't judge Scoobychick too harshly everyone: she is married to me!!
I guesss I drink, on average, about three times a week. Not huge amounts, but I can finish off a bottle of wine without any ill effects. I'm also "good" with Brandy and Vodka and several other spirits.
Only ever been sick through drinking once, and that happened a year ago at a Wedding reception. Didn't get drunk, strangely.....just that I was on the booze all day and the alcohol contents just kept rising, until my liver cried foul!

I consume a bottle of red every 3 months or so. A 75 cl bottle runs for about 3 days. It makes me very lightheaded than usual
I don't feel bad in a party or in a pub to refuse a drink, as I know what it does to me. It makes me ill for days. So, not a good drinker here, in all honesty.

Oh yea,my Darby was getting the better of me...
It was over a period of about 2 years when we just went out every night.We just lived it up a bit as a few of us had broken up with women and were free again..But it did get out of hand..
70 pints is guessing really,probably more some weeks,sometimes less....
I did drink 24 pints of Stella in one sitting once...But it was over 12 hours or so,think that record may still syand in my old local !! ha ha..
Moved away and grown up now,just go and have a few beers once
a week now as the hangovers kill me,back then i never suffered..
If the mood takes me i can still have a gallon and half but think it was last christams when i last did that.. oh and not Stella anymore

The joys of getting older, I don't think I had a real hangover until my late 30's, and it wasn't for the want of trying! Now a serious session takes two days of recovery. The last serious mid week session with some old workmates, I took the next day off work, as I just knew it would be a killer, and it was.

I don't usually have too much on weekdays, but I like to get stuck in on weekends (Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday)
Nah - Serioushly - I probably drink way more than the 'safe' limit that they made up. We have a rota system for getting bladdered so that one of us can save the kids in the event of a fire or comet strike. I have never been too drunk to stop me from finding my home though. I don't do falling over or being sick and a hangover is something that goes away after 4 pints of water and a sh1te.
(Managed to drink 19 bottles of Nukee Brown on my 19th birthday...... that gave me a bit of a hangover..... until I was 23, but was cured by drinking 4 bottles of Bush single malt on my 23rd birthday - Didn't fall down or boak though - just went to sleep in a train station for three days - A guy from the Simon community woke me up offering assistance )

Changing my lifestyle at the minute and Im not doing to badly but over the past 2 years Id drink a good 10 pints at very least on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Mondays and Wednesdays were quiz nights and there'd be about 5 pints each night sunk there so thats very least 50 pints a week with some shots chucked in as well.
Although Im committing myself to just drinking on Fridays and Saturdays now.

Really depends what kind of week I'm having. Tend to have a couple of nights off during the week, normal week nights drinking would be a G&T or a beer while getting dinner ready, then share a bottle of wine with the missus with dinner, maybe a beer or two afterwards. On a bad week that would be every night.
Pretty much the same at weekends though usually end up having a few more beers and a couple of chasers (Single Malt) on a Friday evening, few pre-dinner drinks on a Saturday and if we've got it a glass or two of Port after dinner. Bit less on Sundays as I don't have time to sleep it off on Monday
Don't go out much but when I do I tend to make the most of it
