Well, he's not sentenced yet, but it looks like jailtime according to a Magistrates Blog I read.

 

Should give his liver a break anyway!

 

I once drank about 10 pints in one night and got hospitalised (literally)

How the hell did he get the car going?

 

Drinking large amounts of beer is all about practice. I used to be able to knock back 10 without too much issue. Now it'd cripple me.

But I'm surprised anyone could put the key in the lock after 15 pints.

 

I've witnessed somebody blow high 160's and she was barely on this planet...
I'm surprised it can be done with beer as it would take some time to actually drink 15 pints!!

 

To take this off on a tangent . . .
Quite a while back I remember a discussion about how much the volume of beer effected someone compared to the alcohol content.
We were students at the time, so purely in the interests of scientific discovery we set out to find out.
A night of heavy drinking followed with one of the people in the group drinking pints of water rather than beer.

The results were that it’s easier to drink 10 pints of beer because you get pissed and stop caring, but drinking 10 pints of water is difficult because you’re sober and you feel sick from drinking so much water.

 

Maybe a lucky escape.

You can die from drinking too much water.

It was done recently - I remember the news in the D/Mail.

if you eat crisps you should be ok. its not a good thing though as you lose salt with all the pissing

 

My housemate was pulled over for driving with her lights off. She was mortified in the morning when I went to see if she was ok and she started telling me about it. She had, as she put it "had a skinful on the vodka" - the police breathalised her and she was clear, even though it was obvious she had been drinking.

A VERY lucky escape and something she certainly won't ever try again.

 

More anger at irrational sentencing; ABD reported on one uninsured driver who knocked down a pedestrian, tried to conceal the evidence & got 21 months.

Then there was that 160 mph biker who harmed no-one.

The system is about as close as you can get to corrupt, without actually being so.
