As long as you have a plan for when you run out that is a good start

If that's just for one person to drink over that time frame, I hope they aren't doing any of the driving whilst on holidays. I have no issues with how much people choose to drink, so long as they aren't driving a vehicle also  :cheers:

Better to have it and not need it rather than need it and not have it.

While it looks like a lot in a photo, but if my numbers are correct with the beer then it works out to be 9 beers per day.

So if like me on fishing trips your days start really early, then having your first beer at say a reasonable time like 10am and you drink one beer per hour, then by 6 pm you have drank your beer quota for the day.

Then a couple of quiet sprits around the campfire to finish off your day.

I'd be getting rid of the green & replacing with red, who's allowed to sell that stuff in the north anyway?

Why would you think you'd need 1/2 of that for 3 weeks is beyond me.

My god....  what a stockpile!    I guess where you're going, you can't purchase at the destination?    Or economically anyway?....     So does that mean you are taking back all the trash/empties. ....   or do they go into the sand somewhere?

I'm guessing with that amount of grog you won't be remembering much of your three weeks away, anyway.

if that's the case then happy holiday to him...like I said, I don't have any issue with how much people choose to drink, it's their choice entirely, lord knows i don't mind a drop or two of Bundy myself.  "IF" people then choose to hop in a vehicle and drive whilst doing it is when I'd have a problem with it.... and I'm not saying he is doing that, as I don't know the person from a bar of soap.

When I used to help on the Fraser Fishing Tours thats Cliff used to do thats what he allowed for per person each day. We would have to drive two utes up to hold all the booze and food.

Thanks Champin. Defiantley not drinking and driving missus doesn't drink. The photo was only for illustration purposes that was all the booze we took on week long fishing trip with 4 blokes to the Monte Bello islands last year. I only have 3 cartons of beer and 4 bottles of spirits for the Gibb trip. Was just curious how others work out there rations ie: 6 beers 1/2 bottle per day.
