@bboychi1 The UK has a big drinking problem they dont have the same kind of problems in most other countries because the youth in Britain like to drink too much and go crazy there is No need for fucking sarcastic comments its not a joke that we have so many people drinking and unable to stop go to any English or Scottish town centre on a Friday night and you will loads of drunk people just laying on the pavement and road so on i didn't say that we are the only country where people drink.

Ok, I found where you got your info from. Not to be a spoil sport but lots of them were just contributors and not the actual inventor. Try Wikipedia and see.

I'm not Scott bashing, im half Scottish myself. I just love London because its got a lot more going for it and im certain inch for inch not many places can rival its history and greatness.
