    Its usually just Friday and Saturday nights - one bottle of wine per night. however I do make exceptions - although not often because I just cant function the next day. Last Friday night surprised me because I started on my third bottle of wine which is unusual - one sip past the first and I usually collapse... I've been drinking tonight but thats unuusal and only because I've feck all to do tomorrow.

    Three nights a week is prob. average for me, though it can be more if there are lots of social events going on. It can also be less (though, being honest, it isn't often!)

    It used to be a bit more but the wine is relatively expensive here - there is some good stuff, but since I'm a bit clueless about the local stuff it's a bit hit and miss. Imported stuff is terrifyingly expensive.

    I'll probably have a glass of wine 1 or 2 week nights, and maybe 2 glasses Friday or Saturday, but I can go for weeks without anything. We have loads of booze in the house, and a well stocked fridge in the garage, but hardly drink anything

    About once a month, maybe twice if I've had a particularly pants day... I still have a bottle of wine left over from christmas!

    I will have a glass or two of wine (or a stubby of low alcohol beer) most weeknights. I generally have Wednesdays and Thursdays as 'no booze' nights though - but not set in stone.

    On a weekend I might have 3 or 4 glasses of wine over the space of a full evening (6pm - 11pm) or a bottle if we are having a 'blow out' or a night out.

    I know it is too much but (other than the blow out drinking) I don't feel that it is anything to worry about given that we drink at table with our meal and then have a second glass whilst relaxing in front of tv in the evening - we aren't binging or 'desperate for a drink' Magenta x

    None, we dont buy alcohol at all unless we are having a nice meal indoors for a special occasion such as birthdays, christmas or anniversary. We probably go out once every few months and then we drink (to much) lol.

    Once, maybe twice a week. Usually a glass or two of red.

    I was drinking way too much - about 3 glasses of wine a night at home, and more at weekends. It was making me feel miserable and out of control, so I cut right down. Now I don't drink at home at all Monday - Thursday and will only have 2 or 3 glasses on a Friday or Saturday night. I do still have the odd blowout though.

    I was being exceedingly naughty back in April/May/June time but since July I have been really well-behaved. I usually don't have anything at the top end of the week and then only indulge on Fri/Sat/Sun and sometimes Thurs. I used to have more than one glass too but recently I have been having one and then switching to soft drinks. It wasn't making me feel especially bad I just thought it was a bit much according to all the government guidelines etc. Since having my teeth out I have barely touched a drop - this week for example - I've had nothing at all and doubt I will have anything tonight either.

    A better question for me would be how many nights a year do you drink alcohol? It's probably about 20-30 nights a year. ?
