    Don't think it's WCC , think it's a pear flavoured cider ?
    Then again , I could be imagining it :o

    Hmmm, Koppaberg maybe?
    20 20 was sickly sweet, a fortified wine.

    In the spirit of the thread I am still in the kitchen half heartedly emptying the dishwasher.

    One day last week I was on my way to college and was picking my boyfriend up on the way. My bra was so annoying the whole way to the bf’s house that as soon as I pulled up outside I took it off and threw it onto the floor of the car :D:p

    Uh huh. Yep - that was totally the reason! :D:D

    New homeside after my first day in new project. I've seen so many people come and go in these kind of projects that I wasn't particularly nervous, but, feck, I'm going to have to ramp up my Deutsch fairly quickly, as this is my team's main language. It's a good thing though, as I've been lazy, with English being the common language so far. Half super zzzzz'y, and half bouncing off the walls.

    Ritz, woodies, wine spritzers and cider. Only time I went knacker drinking was the day I finished my leaving. I was 17 down by the river with a flagon of cider and 2 friends dunno how we didn't kill ourselves :D because my dad had a band we were out in the pubs regularly and no one batted an eye serving us. I got scuttered at my brothers wedding on Ritz, I was 15.. Lol
    My younger brother beat us all hands down. We lived beside a pub and one day he came into the kitchen a bit funny wobbly and disorientated , so mam took him to the doctor. He laughed and told her to bring him home and put him to bed, he was pissed :D he was 3 :D himself and the publicans son went into the shed and drank the dregs of the Guinness bottles from the crates.. It was hilarious. If it was now she'd be reported to social services :D

    We were in Goleen West Cork a few years back.
    A pub in there had it on draft, a few of us drank a few pints one night, there's a night and a bit of a day missing from my memory after that. :D
    Also, in my recliner watching Chelsea v Man U.

    myself and friends drank them when we were 16 in a field beside a river and we nick named the field the scrumpy graveyard cause there used to be a lot of empty scrumpy jack cans left there lol

    not so sure nowadays with country pubs less visited compared to years ago hence the taps don,t get used as regularly as the once did.which means the pints are not what the should be,same applies for rural pubs there doomed.................

    Home! Wrapped up in a blanket with the fire and the heating on. Not feeling so well, my body and my joints are aching which is a sign of infection so I'm having a Lemsip and hoping for the best.

    Ah bushin was the best craic. I drank anything and everything I could get my hands on. My sister is four years older than me and she had no bother getting served in pubs underage but by the time I was a teenager it was very difficult, you needed garda ID or a driver's licence. I used to spend my time trying to persuade my sister or lads I knew or strangers to go to the offy for me and my friends :D

    Christ, I was so glad to turn 18. Have to say though, drink doesn't taste as good as it did when I was drinking it illegally in a field :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 197 ✭✭Stone Gossard


    I'm smiling away here at the talk of drinking...a week before I went into 6th year I turned 18....and not once did I go into a bar...I was playing basketball to a high level and all my classmates were amazed I didn't
    " But you're 18!!! You have to!!"
    ..
    (Didn't go into a bar for a pint until past my 19th b'day)

    Couchside, gave up on the match, watching University Challenge instead.

    For sure a lot of it was peer pressure, I never really enjoyed drink while I was younger, probably up to my mid 20s before I copped on and just started having a drink just to enjoy a couple and socialise properly.
    At school it was bigged up and to be a man you had to do it, same with football as I grew older, it was the team mentality sort of, a big sess after the games, not really for the pleasure of the drink, but just to get pissed.
    Ah I'm pretty pissed here now, not alcohol, but Man U are 2 nil up.

    Bushing! Those were the days. Buckfast gets you fcuked fast :D
    It was a rite of passage for me. Every Friday night without fail. Bye Mam I’m going to get pizza with the girls, but escape to the nearest field half the time still in my uniform. Fall in the door then about 3am when they were all in bed, nobody seemed to care back then lol.
    One night there was a crowd of about twenty of us, we were drinking some sort of putrid concoction of god knows what, got scuthery joed and went to get chips. One girl was wearing knee high white boots, lol. The height of fashion in the back of a field. Anyway walking home we passed the field where we were previously, and I spotted something white in the distance. I was convinced it was the girl in the boots passed out drunk and that we had forgotten her. I climbed back in the field through muck and shlte screaming her name, to find it was only a plastic bag filled with puke :D
