Alcohol intake
Just had a bit of a disagreement with the wife. We are on Holiday this week, so consquently I've been hitting the piiss, not that hard in my book mind you. However the Wife seems to think it's being overdone. I've drank an average of about 6 stubbies per night since friday night. I don't think that's over the top at all.
It could be more to do with the after effects, like not getting up until 10am etc etc.
What do you call over the top boozing, taking into account, being on Holiday.
No medical replies please about 2pots per day = an alchy, I just heard that from the missus lol

Re: Alcohol intake
I do a litre and a bit bottle of vodka a week,i reckon thats okish,Hubby managed to down 3 bottles of whiskey as well as stubbies the other week ,his excuse was that his ear hurt from an infection and he needed it to dull the pain.So in answer to your ? 6 stubbies a night is perfectly acceptable.

Re: Alcohol intake
It all depends on what sort of beer you drink and how you handle your "licker".
6 beers for me a night is easy as it is mid strength and I physically work during the day.

Re: Alcohol intake
6 Bottles a night is not over drinking while at home never mind on holiday. Me personally, I drink very little during the week but like most POMS binge on the weekend. This last weekend I pushed the boat right out and downed 12 bottles of the new low carb beer from Carlton, 3 tallies of Strongbow and 6 UDL's on Friday and Saturday was a 700ML bottle of rum washed down with a Chinese and several Squires ales. Lovely.
Enjoy your holiday mate.
