Holiday-makers drink too much - Shocker!

200x190.jpgBoozy English holiday-makers knock back an average of eight alcoholic drinks every day, a survey has found.

That's 80 alcoholic drinks during the average holiday, and at 200 units it's FIVE TIMES the NHS guidelines for safe drinking.

The survey of 3,500 adults by the Know Your Limits Campaign also found that 70 percent of people say they will try to cut back their drinking in September.

That same 70 percent also said they had been so drunk they couldn't remember their holiday, and wouldn't know they had been away if they weren't sunburnt.
