Country:  | I never managed to get on any of the long deployments out west and ironically I only met Japanese sailors when a few of their ships visited Halifax some years back (long way from home!), but from what I've always been told, the Koreans absolutely hate them.
The Aussies are good sh*ts. 
They can drink almost as much as we can. :-"  |

Country:  | Are you kidding? The English and Irish are the world leaders in beer consumption. Canadians try their best...and fail...

Country: | True but somewhere on that voyage across the Atlantic...you poor souls lost your way.
Do you want to come to Britain and see how drinking is really done!? Huh!? Huh!?! That IS a challenge, by the way...

Country: | Let's do it!
If I had a dime for every Englishman I've managed to drink under the table in England, on English ale, I could retire.
Mind you, I was hurting afterwards.  | |

Come to think of it, the dolly did have a rather husky voice and a thicker beard than me, that last time.  | |

| I went drinking with a Canadian ex-squaddie who studied with me a while back, we put away eighteen Stellas each over about 4 or 5 hours. Ironically, I survived better than he did; he pushed his bike about 4 miles back home cos he couldnt get on it, I walked a hundered yards and found meself a bed for the night. I actually lived further away than he did, but I knew some wonderfully co-operative ladies who lived above the bar I got up at 8 the next morning with a perfectly clear head, got on the bus, went home, and spent all day working. Result!
