A seasonal calculator!

Based on this week's intake, I'm Romanian (5th).
No wonder I am uneasy with UKIP.

You drink like you're from Turkmenistan, which is the joint 60th lightest-drinking country in the world.
And that's assuming the last week x 52.

I've had a bit more wine in the last week than usual.

(mind you, I had to guess the whisky measure, I just pour it)

I'm Vietnamese....I entered my nationality as Canadian as technically all of my legal drinking years have been in the land of cinquante.

4 pints of beer was my only consumption in the last week. That is a typical week for me with maybe 1 unit of wine per week and literally no spirits per week.

Italy - joint 86th heaviest drinking country apparently. They manage to make that sound really awful somehow
Actually thought the Italians were bigger boozers than that.

I have been cutting down a lot lately, and so I am Italian too. When I put in the figures from before I cut down I am with Souvy and make a Belarussian look like a teetotaller.

Me too - whatever else I would say about Canadians strange liquor laws the lack of an actual proper pub or the ability to buy a few tinnies with a pint o milk has done me a world of good on that front.

Namibia - 33rd heaviest drinking country, however I've had a heavy week with parties, dinners etc so it's not normal for me to drink that much
