Alcohol problems of Polish people

WOW, I would never have survived in England, back in my drinking days----I usually was just getting started around 11 pm.

You would struggle in England. I think that around 11pm there was last round and closing time.

Im not sure about that, I know people that dont drink and I dont consider them odd for not wanting to....Like I have said everything in moderation I enjoy a few glasses of wine with friends of a weekend since I dont usually drink through the week (once in a blue moon) I think my drinking habbits are acceptable and yes I will get a little bit tipsy now and again, but I still know how to conduct myself

laws have changed bars can open 24 hours if they like, most local pubs will open until 12/1 and bars in the city centre will close at about 2am and clubs about 4am

as to sterotypes.

and who is right ... with some judgments.

Scotland has an average of 11.1 litres per person, which from the above chart, seems to put it up there with Ireland.

A good posting by Szkotja2007, the Scots are right up there with the Magyars. Luxembourg no1, that's a shock!!

Well,I drink maybe 5 or 6 times a year.....so go smoke that stereotype :)

One person doesn't affect stats that much Colonel. How do u smoke stereotypes btw? Just curious

Just role a big fattie.... :]

I did but she started crying ;)

According to the UN WHO study Poland ranks 26th in consumption of alcohol. Don't think they're the worst in terms of alcoholics.

you can bend stats to suit your liking, governments do it all the time :) so that counts for jack :)

They mistakenly put Poland in the wrong list. The 8.1 figure was supposed to be for the first quarter, LOL

I don't think we drink more maybe we just have lower tolerance to certain alcohols?? Like I can drink a whole lot of wodka and be just fine .

or maybe its just that a lot of the drinking goes un reported :) or maybe the figures for Poland was just for the under 18's instead of over :) ok i'm just pulling your leg now :):):)

Hey, the stuff u drink from a tap isn't vodka Dzhaklin, I think u confused it with water ;)
