Lewis Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 It would all depend on the person, their age, wether they usually drink and how it affects them, if they had eaten, if they had drank water after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 It takes about 1 hour for your body to process 1 unit of alcohol, 1 pint of normal larger is 2 units. You can do the maths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosie Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Bound to be the longest time. Sort of thing they would do, to enable there to be some discussion time afterwards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Fred is right, it's an hour per unit of alcohol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
