1. Halloween is one of the deadliest nights of the year due to drink driving

40% of the number of violent offences involve alcohol as a key factor (from minor assaults to serious ones including murder). Is that enough to scare you sober?

3. The average British person spends an entire year of their life hungover - with Scottish people suffering even more

While food and water may ease some of the symptoms, they won't cure a hangover. The best way to avoid one is to moderate your drinking and have water between alcoholic drinks. Remember that water won't make you any less drunk or protect your liver.
