    I have two-three glasses of wine a day. More if I have friends round and we're solving the problems of the galaxy. I can't see why a wine should count as two bladdy units. Mind you, I do have big wine glasses. I hate it when you go to those snobby restaurants and they give you a big wine goblet and then fill it with as much wine as you'd get from a cap off the top of my mouthwash bottle.

    Like a dinner plate five times larger than the lump of fish that sits on it?

    Oh, but they drizzle some saucy jizz all over the plate to make the fish appear less lonesome.

    Posers.






    Six large Leos is a good start.

    When God the Father calls you after ruining your liver, I will welcome you and love you all the same.

    I seem to remember you saying there was no god, only Jesus, Pissingpieface

    you seem to have changed your tune (sung to "where the wild things are")

    Have you got cancer yourself yet? They do say that those that wish bad things on others often get it visited on themselves

    I am sure it is not true though...what do you think?

    Yes, I know. Unfortunately, the waitress' eyes glazed over when I asked her if they had any other light beers, so I stuck with the San Mig.

    once every 2/3 months (on a friday) - so much wine that I cannot remember who I am or what year it is

    In Thailand:
    3/4 small bottles of heineken or equivalent every night

    Lucky you are not a catholic PPilot.

    It starts to get get really confusing when there is a complete holy trinity to deal with like the Baby Jesus, Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.

    How many units of alcohol do you drink in an average week?
    Real hard for me to figure that one out! Maybe you guys give it a try. I drink once a year. So what's the average consumption per week?

    2 bottles of H = 4 units/52 = 0.0769 units a week. Which is more than none, and less than 5. Hope that helps!

    Drink on average 6 big bottles of beer a day. Usually Chang or Heineken.
    So that's a fair few units for the week - well over a hundred.

    Saying that, i dry out for a month when i go to work.

    I've been buying a bottle of whisky every 15 - 20 days or so. Started with Jameson, then found a shop that carries Jim Beam, finally found a good supply of Wild Turkey.

    Still have a bottle of Chang left over from Thanksgiving don't drink beer unless out and about. About once (sometimes twice) a month I do go out for a late evening of drinking and other misdemeanors. This usually last until the sun is peeking over the horizon. Don't really count the number of beers I drink on those nights, but the next day is usually painful enough.

    This just got me to thinking; could Beer Chang and Wild turkey Boilermakers be detrimental to my otherwise sweet and kindly disposition?

    12-14 cups of green tea just to get over the 1-2 bottles of wine the night before
