I drink to much. Normally have a couple of pints after work or cans of stella at home then a bottle of wine with dinner. Fridays is normally 5-7 in pub after work and saturday a similar amount at home or work.

My mrs gives me a lot of stick about booze.

I have one glass of red wine a night as a rule. I enjoy it and they say it is good for you.

Well I managed a whole bottle of a very nice Argentinian Chenin Blanc last night. I ordered a case of it last week and it seemed such a waste to just have it sitting there so I thought I'd have a nice glass with my dinner. Then I thought I'd have a second glass. Then a third and then it seemed silly just to leave one more in the bottle

My birthday night out earlier this year wasn't too bad, although you did slip and fall down the lane with ball still in hand at the bowling alley. Mind you, I couldn't even speak properly. I don't know what's more embarrassing.

Time before that you pulled your keks down in the middle of the dancefloor of a GAY CLUB You got chucked out, I couldn't find you; I arrived home to find you had been trying to open my front door (yale) with your key which had snapped off and got stuck!! **** knows where you disappeared to after that happened!

But anyway, back on topic.

Until quite recently I had been putting away 2 bottles of wine a night, sometimes 3, 6 nights a week for a few months. On the day of my mates funeral a couple of weeks ago I sunk 4 bottles of rose - no hangover either, I got up washed and dressed and went out for breakfast at 11am! Not very big or very clever, I know. I've always drank loads on nights out too, starting off with bottled beer then moving onto Jack Daniels and coke. Thankfully, nights out a rarity now. I genuinely thought I had a problem, but realised it was through sheer boredom (and the fact I've got hallow legs). Now I'm studying I have other things to concentrate on, I don't drink anywhere near as much as I did. And now, unlike before, I can enjoy one or two glasses of wine without thinking 'I might as well finish the bottle'.

This might be of interest: BBC NEWS | Health | Drinkers fall into 'nine groups'

Which one of the 9 types are you?

I drink about 3/4 times a week - mostly at home and average 12 cans of lager. A night out ..... well the last one a couple of weeks ago - at home first, large bottle of WKD blue, 4 cans of lager then the brother in law turned up (unexpectedly) so we went to the local arrived at 8 pm left at 11.30 and probably averaged 3-4 pints per hour. However the last couple were depth charges pint of lager with a shot glass full of creme de menthe dropped into it and down in one

My Son was out of his tree on Friday night, his 18th Birthday weekend, for those who don't know

He can't remember spilling a full glass of wine over my laptop (it lives ) or trying to horse ride the dog, or falling over the settee, or dancing about in the kitchen with his mates. No idea what happened after that, I went to bed

I don't drink at all during the week.
Most weekends I'll have a few bottles of Champagne.

Usually Cristal (must be a 1999), but I don't mind Krug NV now and then.

I used to be quite a drinker and not poofy lager or anything. Spirits all the time, namely vodka (well its more slimming for you ). Used to get trollied a few nights a week and sometimes on the weekend.

Then went on the same diet that Sal went on a few months ago and no alcohol for 4 months !!!
Now I try and keep off it during the week.

There's nothing worse than someone who is normal, charming and nice but then becomes a **** after booze.

A close frined of mine is just that, and a totally different person after a few beers. The switch is amazing and dangerous, and it made me look at myself.

I now drink more, but carry a knife in case he's out with me

Stopped drinking many moons ago when I used to collect too many girlfriends at once and it became hard work.

Water, juice or fizzy pop will do now to keep the whistle wet.

Fosters is awful!

How you can sink that amount of filth is amazing.

Why not do 15 Stellas or something less nasty?

BTW - you'll die soon if you keep that up
