Wine and beers have increased in strength.

Experts are warning that many more people than thought may be putting their health at risk by excessive alcohol consumption.
The Office for National Statistics has revamped its assessment method to take account of bigger glasses, and the increased strength of alcoholic drinks.

there was a bit on the radio the other day (a phone in) and they was wondering whether upping the age limit to 21 would help, i don't think its so much to do with age and more of who you are/ who your with/ where you are

and one thing a lot of people forget is that its a DRUG but because its legal its not looked at the same as say weed so "its ok"


peace
