    If you’re out with four people, if you’re doing rounds, you’ve got to have four pints if everyone’s putting in equally.

    If you only want two or three pints, you can’t buy rounds.

    The government (or was it the NHS or someone?) says we’re not allowed to have four pints, because that’s now binge drinking.

    So we only have two or three nowadays. So we don’t buy rounds.
