Question text As an extra part of the Health Survey for England this year, we are asking people to keep a diary for 7 days. In this diary we would like you to record any alcohol you drink each day, for every day that you keep it. The information collected from the diary is very important as it will help us to build a better picture of the population’s drinking patterns. As a thank you for completing the diary, you will receive a £5 high street voucher. We would like you to start the diary from tomorrow and fill it in every day up to and including (diary end date). Even if the next week is an unusual week for you, we would still like you to complete it. There is a question at the end where you can record whether you thought it was a normal week or not. Would you like to complete the diary?
