I have been a beer drinker for many years and I seriously doubt whether any stranger can tell if I am sober, tipsy, or rat arsed.

Like many Brits I have learned:

1. How to hold my drink.
2. When to stop drinking.
3. To behave with a degree of decorum when I am drinking.
4. To remain capable of getting myself home without assistance (my wife will usually chauffeur me, but her sense of direction is c**p, so I have to be able to give directions).

I know a number of people who can and will appear more drunk on two glasses of shandy, than Richard Bridge or myself on five pints of strong real ale.

What you see in these tagged pics (excepting the mooning shots), is young people having a good time, who may be drunk, or just a bit scatty.

I wouldn't presume to know which, and I certainly wouldn't take action affecting their future based on any such presumption.

Mrs Grundy is alive and well, and still sticking that beak into other peoples' business.
