the trouble with drinking tea and coffee in any of the decent pubs where i live is that you are in mortal danger of getting yourself seriously scolded, because they get so very busy and people shove past without consideration. on saturday night, it's a one way ticket to the qeh accident and emergency.Katherine wrote:Nope - because I hardly ever go to pubs! Tea and coffee are supposed to be the drinks that quench your thirst the most effectively... or that's what my mum says anyhow....DAS wrote:So can I ask those of you who don't drink... Do you get funny looks in bars when you're with your mates, and drinking Coke?
Cos I do.

I'd rather not think about Accident and Emergency admissions at the moment after what happened to my grandfather on Friday....Dr Sigmund Mohammad wrote:the trouble with drinking tea and coffee in any of the decent pubs where i live is that you are in mortal danger of getting yourself seriously scolded, because they get so very busy and people shove past without consideration. on saturday night, it's a one way ticket to the qeh accident and emergency.Katherine wrote:Nope - because I hardly ever go to pubs!

The worst I've ever been was after splitting a bottle of Jack Daniels with a friend back home...
Somehow I got back to my house from his up the road, got myself undressed and got into bed... and puked all over the bathroom, and I don't remember a thing, and felt rough for a few days afterwards

Odd thing is, since I've started binge drinking I've found that my thoughts aren't at all impaired by it (I've always been very strong mentally, which probably doesn't mean anything to anyone who isn't, but anyway I'm not the sort to let a pint of blackcurrant liqueur skew my judgement), only my motor functions. It's sort of like being Stephen Hawking. Only without the international acclaim.
Things I have learnt from Metropol
1. Wishful thinking is valid evidence for just about anything

It's good to get pissed once in a while... it's not so good if you piss your pants tho.
What are your stages when your drinking... do you become more of a fighter or a brainy know - it all the more you drink.
Also is it me or does the first drink make you notice the effect of alcohol more clearly.
If I didn't have a drink for a few weeks... so I was 100% stone cold sobar and I have just 1 can of lagar, afterwoods i feel differently... not drunk or even tipsy, but just different -- can't really explain it.
And Yes, i've been there and even was sick on the t-shirt... i've passed out in many of toilet.

Well I'm saving my drunken story about Reading Festival until I get more information. I remeber waking up in the medical tent, but that's about it.
But to keep you going, I had a small bash tonight in a local club which I hired for my 19th. I'm having it a few weeks earlier, cos I'm moving away soon.
Anyway, my girlfriend's Mum gave me a lift home. We parked up outside my house (darling was being very sick in a bucket) and we (girlfriend and her Mum) started chatting.
I was wondering though how I would get out. One of them has to get out and lift their seat for me to get out.
Anyway, we've been chatting for 45 minutes, no lie, and I break the air and say that I really have to go now, and is it ok if I get out your side? to the Mum.
She politely points out it's a five door car and I have my own door to get out of. Having got many a lift home in the same car before, I feel a bit of a prick.
I walked down my drive feeling much the wally.

Well, I've woken up this morning a bit worse for wear.
I went down the pub at lunchtime and had 2 pints. Then in the evening we went to Yates' and had 5 pints, 1 bottle of Becks and a bottle of Corona. Feeling a bit warmer than normal this morning...

I have only ever been drunk once and that was when we went into Warrington one Saturday night a few weeks ago, though it wasn't massive I was out of it at times, though I am certain I had said some things to my friend, I remember saying I'd love to have shagged one of the girls from work, I must have said it to him at least three times, now the morning after I knew I had said this, now then I wasn't sure whether I said it in life or as a dream. But when we were at work the other week I said to him that I was at this girl's house having passionate sex, only as a joke to him anyway he responded saying 'Oh your dream has come true' Now this started to make me think and I can remember saying this to him now. Plus my mates got to see me throw up on the A49! It didn't help as I had to be in work the morning after and I have never felt quite bad, only had 5 and a half hours sleep and had the worst sore throat ever, I felt like I was going to be sick again, didn't have a headache but I felt awful, I also had the taste of Vodka and Red Square or red Kick or something god awful, it was alright when I had it, but it had the worst aftertaste ever! Even worse than Stella! 
Has anybody seen today's Sun? 
For those who haven't seen the newspaper (I don't have a working scanner at the moment so I can't post a copy of said article), the headline on the page reads "Teens in the grip of a sexual CRISIS" and the main pic on the page is of some teenagers on top of each other and snogging their partner stupid (I swear I've seen this picture used elsewhere, must be a agency one).
There are also other stats represented as pie charts on the page from their "survey" of 13 - 19 year olds on their sexual behaviour and consuming of illicit drugs amongst other matters such as telling your parents that you've had sex and whether you've shoplifted.
Although this is the Sun and anything you read in it should be taken with a pinch of salt IMO, if it's true, it is pretty shocking. Even my mate who was with me at the time when I read this was surprised at it too. Personally I've never seen the attraction of getting completely plastered to the point that you're sick everywhere for all to see, unable to control your bodily functions or end up shagging someone and paying the price the next morning/week/year/for life.
I have to give the award to the Sun for the most unconvincing figures regarding the amount of partners - how the hell can you have 1/2 a partner?
