I believe that the old licensing laws in England are totally to blame for binge drinking. If you went down to your local for a couple of pints, then met up with your mates and got into the flow, you wouldn't want to go home at half eleven. Therefore, you drank more quickly, problems developed, you begged the landlord for another one and that's when the poblems intensified. Scotland changed it's laws years ago and here in Tenerife, the only folk who binge drink are the English tourists. It's very rare to see a drunken Spanish bloke.
You only want what you can't have!
