the fact you use "culture" in the same sentance as british drinking is infact the definition of british optomism...

-Work all week

-spend saturday with hangover
-go out saturday night with the aim to get drunk (good time optional)
-spend sunday with a hangover
-Go to work monday and tell everyone how ill you were over the weekend

Cafe culture won't work in the UK because as a rule, the majority of people go out with the sole aim of getting battered.

Yep I know plenty of folk who's sole aim is to get completely bat faced

One guy I know admitts he can't just have one drink.

He even pestered a hotel which gave out free mini bottles of wine for your room, because HE hadn't got his
