Up around the 50 mark for me.

Wouldn't call that naughty though, Goodfella, just a decent night. You know the price of the stuff here!:nonono:

before i moved back to the US last year it was in the 21-30 quid range (sometimes lower, sometimes a wee bit higher!), now, for various reasons (not involving alcoholism, mind you!) it's usually a big fat zero.

however, as i'm on holiday to new york city tomorrow that will all be changing...at least for one week!

0 for me Ed. There's a rarity, a Sludden who doesn't drink.(often) I've only had 2 pints in 7 weeks since coming home from Seville. I dare say I'll have a few next Thursday when in London for the Celts-Fulham match.

don't know which one to choose; you haven't allowed for people who stay at home, read books and finish several bottles of wine whilst doing so :scratch:

Not a lot these days, have mellowed with age like a fine wine. A couple of pints maybe if there's something going on that has led me to a pub, but that's about it. Frequently go days without a drop !

I'm soooooooooo lame since I finished school :evil4:

Gosh, I almost never drink these days.. except on social occasions.

I used to drink wine with each dinner, but now, I forgot about it ;)

i guess 31-40... assuming the conversion is near 2:1. and that depends on how much time i'm in rehersals (we drink a lot, in our stuffy room) and how many good shows there are that given week.

this is a hard one for me to answer....I mostly drink rum and cokes...but I was fortunate enough to have a very good friend who moved to Puerto Rico that brought me several bottles of rum everytime he came to visit...so I have a large collection, but it is getting smaller every day....right now my ony cost is for the 2 lts. of cola need to mix with the rum....to be honest, I have not even priced a bottle of rum in about 4 years.

41 to 50, since drinks are cheap in Greece, about 5 to 7 euros. And they're more than double (when you order a gin-tonic for example, you get a full glass). But tequila shots (which I happen to loooove) cost about 4 euros... Plus decent beer is expensive here, 6 to 7 euros a pint, 4 to 5 for a glass... By the way, I'm not an alcoholic... I think;)

...funny how we change from youth (19+) to the late 30's (for me) regarding alcohol consumption...I used to spend a car payment's worth back in the day, now it's a glass of wine twice a month with the ol' lady over dinner :evil4: I hope you all have a blast in Seattle. As I've mentioned elsewhere in forums...have a Sammy Margarita for me!

50 notes, plus, every week, no bother. Does no one else have a social life?! :eek3:

Did 20 quid in the pub this lunchtime on a nothing round for work colleagues, just enjoying the summer sun. Admittedly, I probably don't need to buy more than, say, two further rounds in any given evening, but then when you consider the price of wine (tenner mininmum) a head in any restaurant in town and the fact that me and the Mrs eat out a lot, it all soon adds up.
