Alcohol

THERE were times in primary school when your teacher was clearly suffering the after-effects of a rough night - you were just too young to notice these tell-tale tricks.

THIS weekend marks the official end of Britain’s relaxed, airy summer drinking and the beginning of a hard winter of grim-faced serious drinking.

REST in peace, mandatory table service in pubs. Your valiant service will be remembered long after Freedom Day.
