    Proper pissed I usually keep to weekends but that just means half a bottle more than usual. I think the trick is to drink relatively quickly to get the buzz then I get hungry so eat and then I don't feel like drinking any more.

    End result is pished for a while but sober relatively quickly and really not that much alcohol consumed. The most I've had to drink were at the London meets I attended, two bottles of red and a couple of glasses of bubbly followed by an excellent pizza somewhere nearby on the way back to the hotel.

    In the house perhaps a bottle of red and maybe another half if I've got company.
    Yep, that was my problem tonight - a couple of beers, then best part of a bottle on an empty stomach. But now I really fancy another...

        I can only drink on an empty stomach but that changes my blood sugar chemistry such that I get ravenous so eat and then don't feel like drinking and couldn't drink even if I wanted to.

            I blame the recipe which called for a small glass of wine...
            Is that the Keith Floyd cookbook?
