Do you drink alcohol?

It depends. I've been supping a bit recently but can go months without a drop at times as well.

You can't beat a good IPA though after a long day.

Twice a week max. I like the odd drink, hate getting drunk, fun at the time but Not worth it the morning after. Done it once and never again.

Why? Because I like the taste and the mild effect of alcohol. Oh and if it reduces the risk of cardiac arrest (red wine) why wouldn't you.

Oh and by the way, drinkers on average live two years longer than those who are teetotal!

Red wine does far more harm than good :colonhash:
And I really doubt that drinker stat's accuracy.

I drink because it helps me to become more confident and without any alcohol I just feel slightly uncomfortable at parties. I would also never dance without alcohol. Luckily I don't really get hangovers and have become used to the taste so I don't mind drinking at all.

Really respect people who can be at parties etc without alcohol though. Just makes me feel uncomfortable.

Glad someone feels the same.
Every once in a while. The last time was in Ibiza in August. I don't like the taste and it usually upsets my tummy, even if I haven't got drunk.
yes ... :beer:

Yeh - the kind I can only pull off when drunk :biggrin:
on certain occasions :holmes:
I drink because:

1) I like the taste (acquired taste)
2) It helps me let loose and be silly

also it gives me an excuse to do regretful things on a night out I can always say "not my fault, I was drunk" lol

still I don't like the hangovers and the belly flab but they're manageable for me...

I normally have a couple of pints once a week. I drink lager though, none of that bitter for me!
I do drink but not that often. Will probably drink more at uni though but hopefully not to the point where I get full on drunk all the time.
