Happy Birthday Andromeda18_

[Andromeda18_]

I wasn't saying kids should be drinking but 21 is far too much to set as an age limit. Up until a couple of years ago there was no law that would prevent kids from drinking here but then they passed a law that states stores can only sell wine and beer to kids under 16. If they're older than 16 they can drink anything. Then again Portugal ranks 3rd when it comes to alcohol consumption worldwide. We consume about 13 liters per capita per year, Ireland 14.2 and ranking 1st Luxembourg with 14.9 liters (only 8.3 per capita in the US and 10.4 in the UK). The funny thing about all this is that the reason why Luxembourg ranks 1st is because more than 1/3 of the foreign population residing there is Portuguese! Ah,ah,ah! We're a bunch of drunkards, definitely not an example to follow!
