How many days a week do you drink?

LighterGuy

Im embarrassed by how many days I drink Being on the social welfare certainly has upped my drinking ...

So my fellow boardsiezzzzz how many days do you drink? & in what form? getting pi*sed or having a few?

Kiera

At most twice a week. Sometimes i might not drink at all.

arybvtcw0eolkf

Unless there's a Judo competition coming up, most nights.

I work crazy hours and a drink helps settle the ol' body clock.

El Horseboxo

I think i'd probably drink less being on the dole. You know given that i'd be on less money and looking for a job and shít.

I haven't been drinking much lately. Was sick for over a week and just haven't been arsed really. Usually it would probably be once a week.

Ghandee

I'm confused.com.

How does being on the social increase your drinking?
I can barely afford to drink now in full time employment?

But to answer your question, 2 nights, sometimes only one, depends on how busy I am at work (ya jammy bugger)!

Devil08

Id probably drink every couple of hours TBH

beano345

nearly everyday when i was on the social,usually about 4-6 pints! now im back working only the weekends

Tar.Aldarion

Most weeks I do not drink, maybe once.

KeithM89_old

hardly ever now.

Sugar Free

Normally a few on Friday after work. Maybe once a month on Saturday too.

Buceph

Once a week, mostly. That's all I can afford to seeing as I'm living off my parents at the moment. Hopefully I get my social welfare decided and can head to Fás to see about getting a job.

--LOS--

I don't actually drink that often but when I drink, I drink. Nothing really appealing to me about having one or 2 drinks aside from wine with food if it's an occasion, but if someone offers me a drink and I know it's just gona be the 1 or 2 I'll usually refuse it.

markesmith

Almost every day, but I'm looking into changing that...

Should add a poll btw.

Phoenix Park

Once a week. I'm early 30's, generally 5/6 pints on a Saturday night, occasionally 8 or so if its a big one. I just can't work hungover and haven't drank midweek since i was a student.

starviewadams

Have cut down on my drinking lots over the last few months since I started taking anti-depressants,at most now I'd drink twice a week,this week I've only drank once,that was on Wednesday and I had 6 or 7 pints.

I used to drink 6 or 7 days a week,and I'd be drinking cheap Aldi vodka and Southern Comfort/naggins of Jameson as well as pints in the pub.Actually have managed to save some money over the last few months instead of pissing/puking it all away!

Zero.

Latchy

I not to rigid with it , usually 2 or 3 days a week were I will either have beer or wine at home .Think it's good to give it a rest for a few days but am usually up for a drink out anytime

RichieC

It all depends, if Liverpool have a mid week televised game sure I'll pop round the boozer for that, though I usually only have a pint each half and head home, unless the pints go down particularly well and it gets out of hand, I think most of us know that situation

Fridays is usually a gang of us for pints, happy days.

2/3 nights a week, I guess. though I've had a few Anomalies

Red Hand

I drink maybe once a month, and then I have a good few drinks in a row.

brummytom

Normally just Friday and Saturday properly, then a few on a Tuesday

Ya, I'm a Friday and Saturday man myself. Then there's the odd Thursday and sometimes Monday and occassionally Wednesday, Tuesday and maybe Sunday

alwaysadub

Very few. I'd usually have a night out about once a month now, and don't drink much at home.

2 or 3 nights I'd say. One big session on a Saturday night and usually end up going for pints after work one or two evenings, which sometimes turn into sessions too. There would be an odd week where I might drink 4 or 5 nights if there are a lot of things going on.

seanbmc

Once a week usually, if I have college during the week. Twice at most, with the sole purpose of getting drunk .

Sometimes I might not drink at all, all depends on college and money situation.

Heh im the same

ismiseuisce

I don't really drink that often. Maybe once a week although probably not even that. I'd say maybe once every two weeks, I wouldn't drink that much when I am drinking either. I can't really afford it (student on grant). And I'm in final semester of college now so I don't really have the time. God, I sound dull!

EverEvolving

Anywhere from none to seven :pac:

I used to be a much bigger drinker than I am now, not trying not to just not as interested as I used to be. There was a stage where I didn't feel normal if I wasn't getting sozzled at least once a week, that was when I was working though so I probably needed to blow off some steam.

bonerm

0. Don't want or need it.

Monife

Can't afford (even though in full time employment) to go pub on weekends.

Would have a few drinks (about 3) on a friday and saturday at home. And maybe 1 drink on a Sunday depending on the mood.

Would go out drinking (pub or club) only for special events, like birthdays and the lark.

seanybiker

Most nights although the last few weeks I haven't been drinking as much. I must be sick or something

Gaudizeit

used to be 2-3 nights a week but can't afford that anymore so it will be cut down to just Saturdays for a while. I hate staying in on Saturdays. Fridays are manageable.

I drink every day, water that is. Sometimes I might drink some alcohol but certanly not every day!

rovers2001

At least 2/3 cans a night at weekends if not going out but may have two cans during the week.So i suppose 5 nights a week.

Off the gargle for the time being.

Should end first Friday in March.

Patsy fyre

Living in rented accommodation, so I find myself drinking most night of the week out of boredom usually 2 or 3 bottles of fink brau. Generally head out Saturday then for a drain full. Im on the fink right now

Ha. The night I brought the dog around I'm pretty sure I saw that bottle of brandy tremble.

The General.

I drink about 6 cans of harp or carlsberg most nights during the week and about double that every friday saturday and sunday night. When i come home from work i like a nice tasty alcoholic beverage to help me relaxe. I done good last week, as i didnt drink last monday,tuesday or wednesday night. Im drinking at the min also.

That's borderline alcoholism.

I know, because I used to drink every day too. After a while though, it stops being a way to relax & enjoy yourself and becomes something that starts to take over your life rather than adding to it.

I knocked it on the head about 2 years ago & feel a lot better for it.

I still drink though, but no more than 2 bottles of wine over a weekend.

I'd also be concerned with your mental stability when you purposely drink Harp or Carlsberg.

Nosey nelly strikes again.

I drink on a friday & saturday night. Couple of pints or a few cans, usually the latter. I never drink during the week as it affords me the opportunity to make condescending remarks about people who do.

If i drink more than 3 days in a row my brain gives me a kick in the face & says we can't handle this dickhead, cop on our we're off, yeah WE! Im in charge here says he, your not says i, really? says he watch this....then i get a sharp pain in my head & i say ok ok you win.

mickdw

drink maybe 5 times a year so I will say zero times per week.

Guill

3, but it does not depend on how often. It depends on how much really.

Up-n-atom!

I'll be out drinking twice this week, which is a lot - don't really drink that much. It's not something I avoid purposely, I do like a drink or 5 but at the same time it doesn't bother me if I don't drink anything. On the dole now but didn't really drink much more when I was working - sometimes it just seems like you're pissing your money away. Saying that, I was on night out before Christmas and ended up with the biggest hangover I've had in a very long time - think I'm getting too old for that sort of thing!

TeddyTedson

Usually only the once, but it can drag in to a few days, you know how it goes, fecking country is mad for it.

On holidays every day though. It's actually really painful going drinking for 2 weeks. I remember after 6th year puking blood after a only a few shots of vodka on holidays. I'd struggle to do 2 weeks now though, drinking is a young mans game.

Big Nasty

Thread needs poll!

Dudess

Under normal circumstances, one. On holidays, most nights, but I wouldn't be getting drunk every night - not able for it.

None of them
