The BMA (British Medical Association) today called on the UK government to stop the drinks industry from advertising....... and from allowing them to sponsor events particularly sport and rock concerts......... they claimed the 800 million pound spend in advertising leads to dangerous drinking especially in the young........ and that Britain has endemic drinking problems......... hmmmmmm........ Its hard to deny the latter...... sometimes when Im shooting at night in London I am shocked by how hammered everyone is compared to NYC...... and consequently how much more aggressive everyone is................

Brits and their drinking.......... it seems like it has always been like this....... but maybe it is actually getting worse........ ?

I should declare an interest....... I noticed I had worked for both protagonists in the BBC\'s lead news item....... both the BMA and the UK\'s leading drinks company Diagio....... they own Guinness , Smirnoff, Jonny Walker, J&B and a ton of other brands...........

I was sorting through my files looking for drinking shots...... somewhere I have grim soccer fans absolutely totally hammered........ street violence...... yob drinking culture............... problem drinking.......... But then I found this ........ er........ non problem drinking...... Lets face it what could be nicer than having a drink with Helena on the Sea front in Miami........... ? Even if you end up drinking some weird looking blue concoction....... hehehehe........ :-))
