Pour me another one Gordon
 

Now Gordon is wanting to bring in measures to stop us all drinking so much. All of you who cheered for the smoking ban....... how do you feel know?! :lol: One ban only opens the door to another…


But… what is it that makes us feel the need to go out and get sh*tfaced at the weekends?

I don't - nor do I as a rule. I do not condemn those that do, unless they are violent drunks.

I don't like having weekday hangovers.

And now with ISPs tracking what you are doing on the internet (http://tech.uk.msn.com/news/article....mentid=8994235), I am getting increasingly annoyed with the government interference. But seriously, what can we do? Only time people power worked was with poll tax, it would take one big law and then a movement of millions of people to change things.

I dont drink really. So bring it on.........

Me personally I would sooner spend £100 riding all weekend.



Edit:I was joking about bring it on by the way. Smoking damages the people around you all the time, drinking damages yourself only essentially (until you look deeper into it).

I can see the problems associated with the cost to the NHS, Police, Courts and general public through damage to propety etc that comes from the drunkness, fighting, alcholism, crime and damage. Which is probably on the same cost terms if not more than the ultimate cost of smoking.

It is something that need to be sorted out some how.

All that is down to education. I like drinking, and have gotten quite blasted in my time, but I have never been arrested or even talked to by police, never vandalised or graffittied anything and never robbed or assaulted someone. I am in fact rather loving when drunk :). So stay out of my life Gordon!

How does a pint of petrol compare to the price of a pint of beer, it will be cheaper to get drunk soon.

All these taxes! :D

you did try and put someone in a wheeliebin though

I dont think legislation though is the answer. I dont want or need Gordan Brown to tell me how much is OK for me to drink, thats my decision.
