Conrad, my question about your liver was not entirely flippant. Drinking the amount you claim to do puts your liver in serious danger of damage. However, that's your choice.

My brother-in-law died of liver failure at the untimely age of 47 as a consequence of excess alcohol. Prior to that he gave my sister and her daughter a miserable time. Excess drinking is a serious problem and we have too much of it here in the UK.

Moderate drinking: fine, but beware.
