SIP AND ENJOY...
Let the taste and good feeling linger. Drinking for speed and quantity might get you more drunk quicker but it also diminishes the pleasurable effects of alcohol and increases the negative effects.
SPACE YOUR DRINKS...
Your body needs time to process alcohol. You may want to alternate alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. This will also save a few pennies.
THE FIVE-A-SIDE RULE...
Keep £5 to one side at the beginning of the night in case you need that taxi home.
DRINK WATER BETWEEN DRINKS...
Use the water to quench your thirst, not the alcohol. When you are thirsty, you drink faster and alcohol contributes to dehydration.
EAT BEFORE YOU DRINK...
Food slows down alcohol absorption and keeps your drink from hitting you too fast.
COUNT YOUR DRINKS...
Know the size of a standard drink. Be aware of how fast you are drinking. Stop drinking when you have reached your limit.
UNWANTED AND UNPROTECTED SEX...
Often occurs under the influence of alcohol.
REMEMBER, ALCOHOL DOESN’T IMPROVE SEX!
Often the opposite is true.
WATCH OUT FOR YOUR FRIENDS...
And have them watch out for you.
