    click-click-click-finish. Since an alcohol awareness course, I'm much more aware of how much I drink. When I did the course I was drinking well into the danger levels for large men- and I didn't even realise I was drinking too much!

    ive done the survey, think the term "binge drinking" is a load of bollocks really, the reason people drink most in one go is that most people have other things going on, like i drink on a friday and saturday because i work during the week, therefore i binge drink. these stories in the press which put a negative spin on drinking are balls as well, i think its down to each individual to know how much they drink, if someone cant handle their beer and end up injured because they dont know when to stop, its their own fault, noone elses or the fact that drinking hours have been "relaxed"

    done, and binge drinking is rubbish. i guess to some extent if you don't drink all of the time you could be classed as a 'binge drinker'.

    I've just done it too, the new laws have not made any differance to me or my friends, as none of us drink that much anyway. Most of the time when I'm having a drink its with a meal or I'm at home with close friend or family and even then I would only have about 3 glasses of wine over about 4-5 hours while we are talking and snacking on nibbles.

    im loving the new drinking laws. it means that when i finish work on a friday or saturday night i can still go to a bar and have a few drinks, it makes me feel like im not missing out on the weekend

    done dusted bosh

    I like the new drinking laws it mens that you can stay in a club longer having a boogie (most people stop drinking anyway) and it means that regular bars are open longer so you can just chill out in them
