Does drinking make you fat?

There was an interesting article in the Fair Lady in December. They talk about the kilojoule content of drinks. So we watch what we eat and diet carefully the whole week but over the weekend we go to 1 or 2 social get-togethers and even though we don't overindulge in the food, we have a few drinks. What do you drink?

Here is a link to the actual article but they don't show the chart which was in the magazine which shows the exact calory and carb content of the drinks. I am not going to do the whole chart here but have picked a few to show you.
