Yay! It seems we can enjoy longer drinking hours in the UK now. I don't think this will lead to greater levels of binge drinking. There will be no drinking to a deadline anymore then having thousands of drunks pouring out onto the streets all wanting a taxi (or in the case of Hull, a pizza, a fight then a taxi)
I remember (vaguely) when I was in Madrid on a lads weekend away, we could drink in pubs until 7am. Also when I was working in Sydney, I didn't understand that I could stay in the pub until 2am, so as I result I chugged as many pints as I could and by 11pm I was collapsed in the bar. I had to be loaded in a taxi, and then had to remember where I lived.
I bet in a years time, there will be reports in the media about what a great idea longer opening times are. Welcome to the 21st century, UK drinking laws.
Still can't get a fecking beer here though :-)

To be fait - it's 6.30 am and i'm still drinkin, law or not. ;)
I think it'll work! Personally I enjoy a drink but it would be nice to do something else in the evening prior to drinkin, now we should start to see that option becoming available!! A meal or visit to the cinema or bowling etc...
