The cost of alochol could double

So you're buying shit you can't afford? If I don't have it I don't spend it.

As do I, as a general rule. I had lots more holiday allowance last year than I normally do, so made an exception.

Credit is for fools and the reckless (as the recession has emphasised).

Wrong. Credit is for fools who cannot control their credit. My debt is very small and will be sorted out in a month or two. I never said it was out of hand, just that I'm skint right now.

Although I suspect you probably have more money that you make out. With your middle-class background you've probably never even met a "skint" person.

Sorry, I forgot you live in a cardboard box on the side of the road.

Oh and about the 24hr licensing laws, how many of us can list many pubs/clubs whose opening times were heavily altered by its introduction? It seems to me that the vast, vast majority of pubs close an hour or two later now and nightclubs still open until 3-4am like before the laws.

Exactly. The extra couple of hours has made going to the pub much better though. It's all media bollocks.

Thankfully I don't, but then I never went on two holidays last year only to moan about being skint.

Mark did you hear that report on the radio recently, something about the average person in Scotland drinking a massive amount, it was a lot more than a bottle of vodka every week or something.

I don't need a radio report to know that. It isn't just Scotland though the whole of the UK has a drink problem. Drink and drugs are the bane of our society.

That attempt for a joke Romero is dreadful, talk about scrapping the battle.
