Could someone just clarify what a unit counts as?

I can't be arsed to work out the units, so I'll just do it by drinks..

1. How many units do you drink on an average week?
Roughly - 9/10 beers, 10/15 shots of Sambuca/Goldshlager, 5/6 double sailor jerry +coke

2. When was the last time you were pissed?
Saturday night

3. In the first three months of 2008, how many times have you been pissed?
About 10?

4. How many dry days do you have in a week?
Monday - Thursday, Sunday.

5. When was the last time you had a drink in the morning?
Friday

6. What do you drink?
Dark Rum, Sambuca (but I hate it), Goldshlager, Jager, SoCo, Newcy Brown, Guiness, any other lager

7. Do you think you drink too much and would you like to cut down?
Not really, it does cost a lot, but I drink socially so it's fine as wine.

* Beers
o A half pint (284ml) of ordinary strength (3.5-4% ABV) beer contains about one unit. However, some beers (especially lager) are stronger. In pubs, beers generally range from 4% to 5.5% ABV with continental lagers starting at around 5% ABV. A pint of such lager (568ml at 5.2% for example) is almost 3 units of alcohol, rather than the often-quoted value of 2 units per pint.
o A 500ml can/bottle of standard lager (5%) generally contains around 2.5 units.
o 'Super-strength' or strong pale lager may contain as much as two units per half pint.

* Wines
o A small glass (125ml) of 8% abv wine contains one unit, or 8 g (0.25 oz) of alcohol. However, British pubs and restaurants usually supply larger quantities (medium: 175 ml or large: 250 ml), and few wines are as weak as 8%; 12% is more usual. A typical pub measure (medium glass - 175 ml) of white wine (at 12%) contains around 2 units (actually 2.1) and a large glass (250 ml) contains 3.0 units. Red wine, which usually has a higher alcohol content (up to 16%), contains for an average 14% abv. an alcohol content of 3.5 units for a large (250 ml glass), approximately one-sixth higher than a typical white wine. Just two bottles of 14% abv. red wine a week will supply the maximum intake of alcohol for a man recommended by UK health guidelines.
o A 750ml standard bottle of 12% wine contains 9 units. Many wines (especially New World red wines) may contain 14% ABV or more, which is 10.5 units of alcohol per bottle.

* Fortified wines, etc.
o A small glass (50ml) of sherry, fortified wine, or cream liqueur (approx. 20% abv) contains about one unit.

* spirits
o Most spirits sold in the UK have 40% ABV or slightly less. A single pub measure (about 25ml) of such a spirit contains one unit. However, a larger single measure of 35 ml is now often sold, resulting in the consumption of 1.4 units of alcohol.

Why are you such a douche?

Just be bloody quiet.

1. How many units do you drink on an average week?
Somewhere in the region of 100 - 120.

2. When was the last time you were pissed?
It depends what you mean by pissed. I fell over on my way home last Tuesday so I'd call it then. I don't get pissed that often. I tend to have about eight cans and just go on the buzz. I'd consider myself drunk (as in worse than tipsy but not paraletic) at that point, but I'm not in any danger of falling about the place.

3. In the first three months of 2008, how many times have you been pissed?
No idea. Probably the best part of 20 times. I've probably had about 10 dry days this year, though.

4. How many dry days do you have in a week?
Generally between two and five per month.

5. When was the last time you had a drink in the morning?
Sixth year at school (when I was 17).

6. What do you drink?
Toilet Duck... If I'm at the pub I'll drink Guinness pretty much exclusively. At home I'll go for cider, lager or red wine. I'll sometimes get something strong like Duvel or McEwan's Champion but only go for three of four bottles of it.

7. Do you think you drink too much and would you like to cut down?
I know I drink too much but am fairly black-and-white when it comes to most things. I gave up drinking when I was 17 and didn't touch a drop for two months. I just started having a couple of pints on a Friday night and then I got to Uni. In the first two weeks of Uni I had close to 300 units and then I met the guys from Amok. The rest is history.

UKThrash: We're ALL your dentist.

1. How many units do you drink on an average week?

Properly, a couple of weeks ago.

3. In the first three months of 2008, how many times have you been pissed?
Err.. 5?

4. How many dry days do you have in a week?
I generally wouldn't drink more than 3 or 4 times a week - I can't handle it.

5. When was the last time you had a drink in the morning?
Probably Wacken.

6. What do you drink?
Lager, Whisky n cokes, decent cider, the odd shot and I like a bit of mead too.

7. Do you think you drink too much and would you like to cut down?
Not really. Although I always produced plenty o puke when I get very slayed. That's bad.
