"Anyone who has witnessed or experienced alcohol dependency will tell you that plans, ideas or appointments all go out the window after the first stubby is cracked."
GrahamMac, that is what i was alluding to. That statement above clearly states that "anyone who has witnessed or experienced alcohol dependency". There was no prejudice in my statement.
I've witnessed it first hand as have probably most Australians. And as i stated, "the bottle" takes all priority once the first one is cracked.
