I thought this was a bit of fun. Excuse the fact it's a link but it is the BBC so not a commercial site. This link takes you to a drinking calculator. You simply enter what you drank (alcohol-wise) in the last week and it equates that to the average drinking level of a country.

My states. - "You drink like you're from Tajikistan, which is the joint 41st lightest-drinking country in the world."

The UK is 24th, USA is the 48th.

You don't have to say what you drank, only where you rank and where you are from.

If you want to compare against other countries you can check under the graph by entering the country name.

Cute toy, I seem to be either Hungarian (8th) or Chillian (45th) depending on whether I drink 2 or 3 pints of beer a week. Seems bit senstive to beer, probably because it's in pints.

Wonderful! It appears I am from SAUDI ARABIA, tied for the second lightest drinking country in the world!

Of course it's based on their question which asks about consumption in the last week. When I entered the amount I'd "like" to drink in a week my standing shoots WAY UP.... to JORDAN, 11th lightest.

Maybe I should just have a huge Connosr party and pack it all in...

Apparently 1 pint of beer and 16 single measures of spirits ranks at number 1, like a Belarusian.
