Last December I bought 2 x cartons of cascade light, marked down as close to supposedly use by date, paid $17.
Just recently finished the last 6 pack or the last carton.

Now if your talking cartons of wine,barely a week.(and thats not the cardboard box wine)

In sure ifwe could afford more, we would probably drink more.

Recently my wife through her work has been given a few cartons beer, they've barely lasted a week.

Maybe its the weather or time of year.

I only drink for about half the year, i do a 15 days on 13 days off roster, when at work i don't touch a drop, however coming back through the airport i always grab my two 1125ml bottles of Bundy, they are always empty and in the recycle bin by about day 10 of my break, sometimes a 3rd bottle is purchased, especially during the NRL season, hehe.
I don't ever buy beer for home, will have a good quality beer when out for dinner etc.
Dead set i can smash near a full big bottle of rum and wake up feeling quite ok, drink 6 beers and i feel a bit ordinary..... I think it's a FNQ thing!!!

Morag has a glass of wine or two about once a month.
I do not drink at all anymore and the world is a better place because of it.

Usually have 5 or 6 schooners a night but dont really keep count .... with 6 kegs on tap i dont really take much notice how long a keg lasts as the wife does all the brewing and kegging ....

Well done Hoyts.
My wife doesn't drink at all, that's actually how we got together.  We had a driver during the footy season.
Every time I am fiddling with the kegs I can hear " beer stinks" from inside the house.

I can relate to that.  The fact I have a stuffed liver and heart are a reminder of the days I'd rather not think about.

These days I would probably have one beer/rum a month at best.  While camping I have a few more but no where near the extent I used to.

When you are sitting by a creek with friends camping its very hard not to have a few extra beers and if at home putting a camping dvd on just starts the process all over.  :cheers:

it takes me about a month, sometimes even 2 to finish a bottle of Canadian Club at home, but a weekends camping will see 1/2 a bottle vanish.

used to go through 2 bottles a week and on big occassions i could drink 2 bottles in a night before passing out, then i figured out it was only killing me both physically and financially

beer just makes me agro and aggressive so i don't touch the stuff

Whats UDL's  ??



Quote
from Wikipedia
United Distillers Limited, more commonly known as UDL, is an Australian brand of pre-mix (also known as alcopop or RTDs). It was started in 1965 by two Australian men. The company started with the two men mixing and selling the drinks in recycled glass bottles at parties and through word-of-mouth the company grew and gained recognition. The first drinks launched by UDL were: UDL Vodka Lemon, Lime and Soda; UDL Rum and Cola; UDL Gin and Tonic; UDL Brandy, Lime and Soda; and UDL Ouzo and Cola.

Or more commonly known as lolly water :D   :P

I prefer the 2 finger method :)

Me too...when she says I'm having too much, I show her 2 fingers!   >:D


If you asked 20yrs ago, I wouldn't've be able to see the screen to answer. And up till recently, not so much.
But now I find out I'm needing to be Glutton free, so no beer. So instead I suffer with drinking Jimmy Beam and/or some of his poorer cousins   ;D  but neat or with Dry only, that coke stuff makes me wake up feeling like the cat's done it's business in my mouth while I'm asleep  ::)

I only drink of the 1st...1st Monday of the week, 1st Tuesday of the week, etc

Sometimes I only drink on days with a "Y" in the name, sometimes I don't drink at all [but not very often].

My wife can tell you exactly how many I have had - apparently!!!

Like Bullfrog, I'm not afraid of Tadpole!!!!

I would probably have a beer every 2 to 3 months.

I used to drink a lot of port and scotch but lately I almost never drink. Usual story, woke up one day with a killer hangover and will not go back there for love or money (except maybe at the MySwag 2013 Meet).
