Me, probably 2-6 units on the average working week. On holiday, maybe that much nearly every night, but that's only 4 weeks a year!

8-24 depending on the week, but about 16 on average.

If I'm oncall then 0, otherwise about 9 a week

Very few, a couple of beers worth per week.

Apparently doctors and the like double your response to this question (as a rule of thumb) as most of us tend to be somewhat economical with the truth on this one!

About 5 pints of 4-5% beer, whatever that is

Don't know about units but I buy a bottle of vodka on Friday and that can last anything from the weekend to all week.

As much as poss without pissing the bed

I do 20 - 30 on a normal week and 30 - 50 on holiday. I record my units daily along with my weight and hours of riding. Obviously if this wasn't anonymous I wouldn't admit to that. I have an appalling weakness for beer.

Somewhere around the 50 mark :oops:Thats units not pints.

As I'm in a hotel tomorrow night, I intend to piss and shit in the bed too. I'm at a gay wedding so if there is a bloke either side of me when I wake up, then all the better.

saved up my weeks worth

I dont know, but the last couple of weeks i've cut down massively. Previously it would be 2-3 bottles of win and a few pints on school nights, then about 6 pints friday and 6 saturday. Now I only drink at the weekends.

Don't tend to drink for long periods of time, then will go through 15+ units in a night.

About 30-40.
The 'unit' of alcohol is an arbitrary definition of course, it has no particular significance.

about 10 a year

Very few nowadays - some weeks none, others 4-8 units.
If you'd asked me 12 years ago when I lived in London, it would been more like 60-80.

0 for me!
(a student who doesn't drink - shock horror!)Posted 8 months ago # -
Not sure of the units, but 12ish pints of 4% beer - and the odd whisky.
Posted 8 months ago # -
Median is zero, Mean, probably less than one. Maximum 10-15 if on holiday.
A better measure is "during the past seven days how many units have you consumed?"

Nice one!
I'm to blotto to actually keep count.

About 5 pints of 4-5% beer, whatever that is
About 13, assuming a strength of 4.5%

2-6

0 - it encourages bad "lifestyle" choices with me

Well, it's not. A unit is 10ml of pure alcohol. So a 500ml can of Stella at 6% would be three units. A 70cl bottle of wine at 13% would be 9 units. A 25ml shot of JD / vodka is 1 unit, the whole bottle would be 28. Etc.

5-10 per week
Posted 8 months ago # -
Probably about 0.1 units a week. Not strictly teetotal but I may as well be.
Posted 8 months ago # -
Been on less than 10 this past week and low and behold a long term 'digestive issue' magically got better.
I plan on testing this though next week to see what happens.
Maybe 2 bottles of ale a night normally but 1 night on 1 night off. No longer drink to get drunk as i am a tool and i don't like making people see me dance. It's not big or clever.

<nerd>
Doesn't that mean on some weeks you have to consume negative amounts of alcohol? Don't you mean modal..?

0.1 on average
