Default Drinking start time ?
Ok, its Christmas Eve, when is it acceptable to start drinking ?

I started at about 12:30 and had one pint of Lager, then stopped, but intend to open a bottle of Champagne at about six, any sooner and I peak too early !

And, what are you going for ?

I've been hungover for the last hour, and I've only had one drink!

That is a horrible feeling, lunchtime boozing and ending up with an afternoon hangover, used to do it at the Police, 3 pints and then back to do the testing on the Alcometer software !

Secret is to keep going.

Well, it's always five o'clock somewhere - at least it is in my house!

A whiskey sour sounds good, but I'm going to wait until 7...

Well, I've had a cup of tea and a mince pie now. Next step will be the champagne. It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it..........

I'm having a cuppa at the moment, but should move on to the 'harder' stuff in about half an hour or so.

Large bottle of stella with my dinner then kids off to bed. Then having my bottle of Hobgoblin (no idea what it's like) the MiL bought me (gift set) for Christmas and then more large bottles of stella. First Christmas Eve i can remember i've been up to date with wrapping presents so looking forward to sitting down with a couple of beers.

Went to the pub about 4:30 and had a cider, had to drive and just got home. Had beans on toast and a yoghurt with a pint of water, hardcore.

Now the serious drinking begins which generally means I'll be in bed by 10:30 with a headache.... Dunno why I do it to myself!
