Alcohol and flying

I was recently speaking to a guy who told me that as a PPL, he does not touch alcohol withing 3 days of flying. While I to an extent, commend this approach, I do find it a little over cautious, especially since I mostly fly at weekends, which is also the only time I drink.

Personally, my rule is that I do not drink within 24hrs of flying and when cicumstances have conspired to mean I have consumed within that period, I have pulled out of flying.

What rules do others have?
