I think it's something like 48hrs since your last drink, it's long gone out of your blood, but in terms of urine etc it takes a bit longer!! . . . the damage though from alcohol is a different story!!

I think it all depends how much you were drinking before you stopped. I was lead to believe a unit was in your body for around one hour before it metabolized. If I lost count, I would usually give myself a couple of days at least. But I can't be 100% certain.

Yeah from reading about it seems BAC (blood alcohol concentration) can be distinguished from alcohol presence in the rest of the human body, BAC is the 1 hour per unit rule, so for being able to drive etc, the morning after should be no problem if there's enough time lapsed between last drink for BAC to decrease throughout the night . . . but urine tests apparently can still detect alcohol up to 48hrs after ingestion!!
