We're not viewed as wishing to send 20 million of our citizens to the US - not that the Mexicans wish to so either, but it's all about perception.

As for the drunk part, not everyone gets drunk here........oh who am I trying to kid, everyone does, except the 'dessies' (designated drivers ) and me (the only teetotal Irishman ).
