Weekend drinking limits

Very rarely drink at home these days, and not just because I’m very rarely at home, :laughing:
I will sometimes have a small beer or vin rouge in the evening if I’ve stopped somewhere decent, but really my alcohol intake although never much has reduced considerably over the last couple of years, not for any particular reason though but I have noticed I’ve lost weight since reducing the drinking.
However I can’t understand these people who say you shouldn’t drink anything the night before you go to work, when I do have a drink there is at least 8 hours between me finishing my drink and starting to drive and I should imagine a relaxed approach to life which includes the odd drink would mean a far safer driver than some stressed up moral crusader.
