Good night guys!
Hows it going Off Topix citizens? 
Hmmmm, I think I do actually give up. Told my boyfriend I have this coming saturday off and he's not actually responed although he has been onto the messenger 3 times since I wrote it!!!!
Is there something wrong with people?! Or is it actually me????
Maybe he is pissed that I've told him I don't particulary like his drinking habits.

Yes, there is something wrong with people who have a drinking problem which Thomasz obviously has from reading your posts about him. Nothing wrong with you to be concerned and want to express your views about his drinking. Hopefully he will respond back to you but I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't.
He did after I posted a really sarcastic post. Wants to drive on Saturday to the places which I've tried to protest. Didn't work. Won't take no for an answer.
Then asks me if I want to go for drinks on Friday night
I actually want to go to the pub on Friday night but to see a band. Not told him because he'll just want to come along and get drunk :/

What places does he want you to drive to on Saturday?
Theres to castle ruins that I've suggested one is about 20 mins drive, then other about an hour & 20 from there.
I don't mind him driving as long as he's not going to go out on one of his all nighters Friday night. I have just asked him that. Waiting for a reply.

It sounds to me that you are playing the third wheel in this relationship with him and his booze being the other two wheels. It's obvious he puts booze above you because of all the problems he has with you not liking or going along with his drinking. I think at some point it's going to come to a point where either he is to ditch his excessive drinking or you are going to end up ditching him if nothing changes. There's nothing wrong with going out for a drink but drinking to intoxication is dangerous for countless reasons and not worth putting yourself through it for anyone. I can't say for sure but he is starting to sound like an alcoholic with his desire to drink to intoxication regularly and insistence on being allowed to continue to do so with you.
Well basicly I'm going to give him a chance, on the weekend that I get off then he can go out with me, and then he can drink to his hearts content the other week if he feel he wants/needs too. I mean I can give advice and my oppinion, but I can't stop someone from drinking like that if they want to.
He still hasn't answered my question....

OH MY GOD WHAT A LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Said he usually goes out on Friday for one or two beers with his work friends, but doesn't always go..... That's odd because I've been counting and it's EVERY FRIGGIN WEEKEND!!!!!
Says we can go together for a pint and then go back to his or mine.... Why does drink always have to be involved in everything we do! :'(

It's because he's basically "married" to his beer much like how a husband does everything with their wife is like how he treats his beer. The fact he can't even be honest with you is a red flag in my opinion. I can't speak for anyone else but to me honesty is very important and I don't think I could stick with someone in any form of relationship in which they couldn't be honest or be dishonest to you without shame. Honesty is a form of respect and to deny honesty to someone is to essentially disrespect them. Love and respect go hand in hand and you can't and won't find love and disrespect or respect and hate to you from anyone. It just isn't possible.
Yes it's true that you can't make him do anything he doesn't want as the only thing you can do is encourage him to do what you think he should do and leave it up to him to decide what he wants to do.
