Good work if you can get it!

A team of accountants researchers were paid to visit "nearly 600 pubs, bars, nightclubs, off-licences and supermarkets in England over a five-day period" and discovered that some people got drunk whilst drinking!

How much did this "research" cost!?!

Did they manage to isolate the cause of this drunkenness? I'd love to know how it happened.

Apparently the glasses are too big and not enough tax on alcohol.

That, at least, will be how the government will interpret this startling exercise in the bleeding obvious.

I don't know how much they spent, but it appears they spent it wisely!
