Current research tells us that Christmas drinkers will consume more than 600 million units of alcohol during the festive season. I wonder how many of us will keep to the 21 units per week for men and 14 for women? Police in Rossendale will be stepping-up their campaign testing drivers to see if they are over the limit. Remember that many people are breathalysed in a morning and are found to still be over the limit!
