The Booze

[perthshire keeper 1,239]

when i was in scotland i used to drink like a fish about once a month. in the "abbercromby arms" in tullibody but other than that not much, maybe the odd session with the poles, but i dont drink much at all, it takes real effort for me to have a session!

used to drink for england I could put it away a few years back but now I find I cant

so don't go out as much now

been a big drinker in my younger days and taking a few other things along the way lol. but paying bills and having a young'un has changed that (for the better of course) the last few years I've been going on and off the sauce, I don't miss it when im off it and I feel better for it. and when I do have a few I its not like the old days haha. and the day after is a write off. thinking of packing it in altogether, cant really have two/three pints and head home its all or nothing with me.

 

there must be people on here in the same boat or have been? how many of you's jacked it in and how many of you's still go on benders or just have a few?

 

don't worry its not an aa meeting,

Same here mate loved going on bender weekends don't anymore maybe now and again or special event hung over for days after one night

Theres not many people who can truly handle their drink and be the same person on it as off it......I only know a couple of lads who can

 

I packed up nearly 18 years ago when I settled down as I had to get on and have my wits about me.......don't miss it one bit and never have.

Its no big deal to stand in a pub and just drink soft drinks, don't bother me in the least.

 

I have seen plenty of blokes who would have been rich men but couldn't leave the booze alone and wound up pissing it all up the wall.

2 or 3 pints of guiness in good company , once a week ,...heaven

[keepdiggin 9,559]

every sunday morning I say that's it for a month but soon as Friday comes round.............

[keepdiggin 9,559]

If i'm out i'll go for it...as showcased at the fishing comp my hangovers are evil though and i feel it's a waste of a day so i only really go out when my arms twisted or a bird is involved!

 

I can't bring myself to drink in the house though, much prefer a pint of ice cold Pepsi Max or Fanta....rock n roll

I'm exactly the same don't drink in the house unless its a house party.

I'm no drinker,,, going out at the weekend when I was young,, was to pull,,, never gave a feck about the drink,,, in fact when the 90,s started and raves,,, that was better,,, just a pill,, and a good time....

 

Even now I wouldn't be bothered if I never drank,,, even though I usually put down a few bottles of sloe gin,,damson vodka ect...

 

Mind I do find mojitos,, a bit moorish,, been back of my hols a month ,, and not had anything, and proberbly won't till Chrimbo ....sooner have juice

Love a drink but stopped for almost two years but camerons not stopping me if i fancy one, take this week ive had 4 big bottles of fosters gold at a pound a bottle 660 bottles and 8 san miguel with food by my side happy days, but in the main ive stopped lol

[stabba 10,745]

Very rarely drink at all..then it's about 4 pints max...Know a few who cant keep their mouth shut once the drinks in em..these lads reckon they dont have a problem. I'd disagree. Bit sad when you need a few beers to say what you should say whilst sober

[paulus 26]

i have cut down to 10 bottles of white lightning a day now

Like a few watching the match but nothing big, the hangovers are not worth it for me, maybe a few on a saturday night.

Can't drink like i used to. When I did drink, I could drink for England, but when it came to recovering, I was on the bench for San Marino.
