sick of it completely.
Me at 15 "Julia, your a slag, lets have sex"
Result, Julia "I never want to see you ever again"
Ooops!
I've had some pretty heavy times on drinking, ending up drinking a carryout before going in a pub thinking im the lad and all, end up getting drunk before going in the pub..whiskey before hand then pints inside..the end result being talking the biggest load of shite and having to get alift home with my head and stomach spinning in the back of the car...being sick then having to get up 4 hours later, hangover.
Alcohol can be one of the most powerful drugs out there, just because its legal dosen't mean anything.
You can OD on alcohol to the point of no return, but cannabis now there's a different story, if you do manage to smoke too much all that happens is inability to move, pale white face, nothing is funny despite what people try to tell you, you just say "fuck off,leave me alone" and let me whitey out in the corner.
Ah :rolleyes:
I know what you mean about doing too much though, the margin or error is quite a bit smaller than people realise.
I was made to feel a bit of an outsider when I was a teen because all my 'mates' prefered going down the pub and drinking loads, when most of the time I just fancied sitting outside somewhere nice and smoking a few biftas. Whats nice is they all still live in the shitty vilage where I grew up going to the same crappy pub, I live in London, have a relatively good job and own my own flat! Hahahahahah! So it all works out for the best in the end.
I know what you mean about sitting outside smoking a few spliffs, you gotta love it, thats what we do, sit outside the pub, have a few spliffs then go in a pub and have a few drinks then a few more spliffs, best of both worlds.
But beer, well i don't really like the taste of beer that much, budwiser can be okay sometimes, but i prefer buckfast outside the pub and then magners inside, can't beat a big pint of magners for £1.50
I'm not sure whats worse, Bud or that Buckfast stuff. Though having said that I've never had the latter.
Bud?!! Please! It has NO taste at all. It does take a while for you to grow into beer though I found, I couldnt really drink it when I was a teen, I'd always have Vodka or Bells mixed with something.
But yeah I do love my beer. £2.60 for a pint of Stella in a pub near me! :eek: Luckily we found a nice little place Castlemaine XXXX £1.20 a pint (can't really go wrong) and Boddingtons :yuck: £1 a pint.
Can't drink vodka or whisky, purely a lager lout.
And if I'm feeling rich I'll splash out and buy a pint of Hoegaarden. Fucking expensive that stuff.
If you want a good but relatively cheap beer go to Waitrose and get their own brand Bravarian Wheat Beer, its quite similar to Hoegaarden, very light and very drinkable.
(mods, does that could as a source, which we're not allowed to share?)
That girls been wistfully looking out the window the whole time you were away, sighing.
Has she? How romantic. Its nice to know someone missed me.......
