Surprisngly high number of non-drinkers. That may say more about my circle of friends and my attitudes than this board though.


People have got to make their own mistakes if they want to. If you like a few drinks then its an inherent hazard you may drink too many and make an idiot of yourself. 'Just one more' is a tempting phrase, I've fallen for it enough times myself.

After typing, thinking, re-typing and deleting a great deal I've come to this conclusion: I have absolutley no idea what you should do. Or indeed what I should do or say in similar situations. I stand by the paragraph above though as a general rule, many people have to make their own mistake before they learn. The problem is that while experience is a great teacher, the cost of the lessons can be very high.
