A Christmas tipple, statistically

Did you know that half Britain's adults have their first glass of wine on Christmas Day at 1:12pm?  It must be true - it is in a newspaper!

Leaving aside the silliness of recording such an item of data (I can't tell you to the nearest minute what time today I had any drinks, and I doubt if many of the readers of this can either), there is the interpretation of the data.  I suspect that what was meant was

half Britain's adults have started their first glass of wine on Christmas Day by at 1:12pm soon after 1pm

Cheers!  And Happy Christmas!
