I was sitting next to a German Service mate on a flight some years ago and started browsing the Airline's In-Flight magazine. Amongst the usual inane drivel was an article including one of those "effects of Alcohol" pieces, including the loading table. " One beer = no effect," "Two beers = slight elevation of mood" up to "Twenty Beers = danger of total loss of consciousness - possible death".
Now Edgar was a drinker of the old German School, so out of interest I handed the magazine across to him for his opinion. With a bored expression he looked at it , glanced down the "Alcohol effects" table and passed it back.
" I drink more than that before I have a p*ss", he replied.
