How normalised heavy drinking is in Britain

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (2 children)

What counts as heavy drinking? Curious to compare with what's normal in my country.

Apparently the UK has some of the highest (maybe the highest) binge drinking rates in the world and highesr alcohol consumption per capita - kinda goes hand in hand. I wasn't surprised to read it, some of the lads and ladettes start drinking Friday after work and don't stop until Monday morning. Crazy stuff, like out literally all night, wake up still buzzed, get another few rounds in with your mates and just keep going.
