Hello, I am from a foreign country, and me and my parents are going to stay in England for two weeks. In my country it's legal to drink alcohol till 15 percent alcohol when you are 16. I have already seen that it's different in england: though, the last post was from Januari, 24th 2008. Did anything change concerning these rules after this date? (I guess there are people who think that I'm alcohol addicted: I can guarantee you I'm not. I only like to have a beer somtimes and I don't want to get in trouble with local authorities.) greetz
