Yes, I think we should all live in a "dry" environment to prevent the non-presbyterian oiks larging it in their down time. Like I do .. no pubs (but all you can drink brunch on Fridays..20 mins after the mosque chucks out.) 
In other words BHR..its banter mate.

The existing rule is good enough IMHO. I am a little worried by some thoughts here that, at home in peace time, we shouldn't drink on "school nights". I will not be refrained from going out on the lash on any evening if, at the time I leave the house, I have not been scheduled to fly before the following midday. Potential for a call out or not, I work to live, not live to work.

It doesn't have to be particularly alcoholic for me as I actually enjoy the taste of beer as much as its buzz - honest. I used to be partial to the odd pint of draught Tennents LA if I was driving and, even though it was only 1% alcohol, it tasted very much like the real thing. Unfortunately it is no more. But I found some bottled Cobra Zero% the other day and did a little trial to see if it fitted the bill. I chilled it nicely over a day or so, cracked a bottle open last night, had a long slurp and - guess what? It's as bad as Kaliber. End of test.

Maybe, but it certainly helps to put up with all the flack at work nowadays.
Anyway, must iron my blues now so that I can be mistaken for a bus conductor tomorrow...
