Oh no, no booze..., How will we survive and live without it...

Get a grip people, more to life than getting smashed, making a pratt of yourself, not knowing what you did the night before, damaging your health, wasting money, draining the NHS etc..., I say way to go hotel guys as according to recent NHS reports, alcohol linked crap costs at least 3.5 billion pounds and add that to saving the world elsewhere, ..

Typical answer...........You do realise people can drink in moderation?? They are able to have a glass or two of wine with a meal without falling over and shagging in taxis?

You know....you can get pissed up and not cause trouble.

I got smashed at the weekend, went to two bars, drank a lot with friends, danced like a hero, offended nobody.....ah what's the point, falling on deaf ears.

Really? The sole reason and cause for him not being here today is booze?

Nah, I go out and drink and haven't disappeared.

Have you ever been drunk?

Do you drink presently?

I'm sure people in Egypt will survive the "official" ban on alcohol the same way they do in Saudi, Kuwait, Iran....

Do they have the NHS in Egypt

They seem too dumb to realise that Egypt does have some attraction to tourists. Like it or not, a lot of tourists like a drink when on holiday, take that away and you lose business. This will only be the Egyptians loss in the long run.

Most doctors would agree that a glass of wine a day has a lot of health benefits. Guinness if you lack Iron...........It has its benefits. I won't argue that 20 pints a day does you no good.

A) Desperately needs to,
