Planning a night out? Plan to stay in control

When you're drunk, situations can quickly escalate out of control and arguments can easily turn into fights. We want you to enjoy a good night out, so remember:

1. Learn to recognise the signs that it's time to slow down.

2. Try alternating between alcoholic and soft drinks.

3. Avoid drinking in rounds -- it's easy to lose control of how much you've had to drink when you're keeping up with others.

4. Walk away from confrontation. One drunken argument could change your life. You could seriously hurt somebody or get arrested, potentially ruining your career, relationship and your self respect!

Have fun but don't let being too drunk ruin it for you!
