Hi Carl
Me and Ali have to be very selective about when we tipple - ours is the toughest drugs and alchohol policy around matey.

Fully understand that - Joe Public may loose a little faith if they thought their train drivers were p****d or otherwise under the influence when conveying them to wherever..........and as for you guys, being without your full faculties when working so close to instant death doesnt bear thinking about!!!!!!!
When I used to fly (albeit privately) and when I was driving coaches, i was absolutely tee-total. With the coaches, I never knew from one day to the next when I was going to be called in to drive, so the risk wasnt worth it. These days, I no longer drive the coaches or fly light aircraft, but my alcohol intake hasnt increased a great deal...........just the odd beer or whisky occasionally...............
