The binge drinking question below
4 pints is indeed binge drinking as defined by the amount of alcoholic units the liver can process normally.
In fact the weekly allowance is a bit bulls**t actually. If you have say 2 pints a day you are over the weekly limit but your liver will handle it without any problem. If you go out and have 10 pints then that one session can damage your liver, which does not repair itself.
Food for thought and very scary (me included!).
This info comes from Mrs. In Holland (a doctor) who tells me this every time I have a bit of a session!
