I drink 2 pints after work , drive home , eat my tea , go back out , drink 5/6 pints . go home . up in time . never late . whats up with you ?
I bet lots do.

I hope this is a joke, I fucking despise drink drivers.

What's the limit now?

I used to drive on 2 pints regularly in my younger days thought it was fine. Won't even have one now not worth it

It is 5 units for a man.

two pints at 5% = 5.68 units
two pints at 4% = 4.54 units

So unless he is drinking weak booze then he is very nearly or just over the limit.

Cheers.

Bit of an eye opener that. Sounds like he is a lucky boy (or we have all fallen for a clarkie)

Not sure. The best way to work out what units you have is to remember a rule.

(the % of the drink you are having X the ml volume of the drink) / 1000 = number of units

e.g.

1 25ml shot of voddy at 40% would be

(40X25)/1000=1 unit of alcohol

i certainly haven't read anything about a lad having a problem. i know i've got a drink problem but i get a lot of enjoyment out of my social life and because i can well afford to fund my problem in any establishments i wish. i dont ballon when i'm pissed, i don't get rough in the morning.

i'm not a social worker so i can't give any good advice.

on top of that i support a good football team.

i'm happy as larry.

Just a wee update for any of you guys struggling with similar problems.
Now well into month 3 and things are all going well. No alcohol and only a couple of fly ciggies!!

Anyone out there unsure about going to the doctors, don't be! Get along there and be honest, with both the doctor and yourself. Don't be afraid to tell your family and close friends. They'll understand and appreciate your honesty and make life a lot easier for you.

Things are definitely going in the right direction for me although I've yet to go to a big social event of any kind.
