KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 21 (Bernama) -- "My friends tell me I talk rubbish when I drink wine," lawyer Datuk V. K. Lingam said Monday, admitting that he could not recollect the occasion in the controversial video clip of him allegedly brokering the appointment of judges on the telephone.

Lingam, 57, said that looking at the video clip, it was obvious that there was wine, whisky, brandy and the soft drink 7-Up on the table, adding that it appeared that there was a party going on and a drinking session too.

"I might have had one too many (drinks)," said Lingam.

He also told the Royal Commission of Inquiry on the video clip that looking at the clip, it would be "quite a couple of drinks" to consume since there were two bottles of wine, a bottle of whisky and some (other) liquor.

"Normally, I can hold up to two and a half glasses of wine. Then I get tipsy and high," he said.

Lingam said he doesn't go to the pubs. "If I want to drink, I drink at home, If ever I go for a function, I don't drink too much," Lingam said.
