| Quote: | I'll tell you the reason,me,that's the reason,yep,loopy old me.
About 15 years ago,myself,my wife,her best pal and her hubby all left a social club at around 12 bells.
Her best mate Margaret asked us if we wanted to come down to their house for a few drinks.
I had around 7 pints of cider and 5 Baileys,was sick as a pig right outside Mags' house,got inside,had 2 whiskies,sick in her bathroom.another 2 ciders,left her house at 2.30,the second i got out,i was sick again.
We managed to get a taxi home,3 days later i finally recuperated,i vowed there and then that i would never embarrass anyone including myself,ever again.
When i go out,i hardly take more than 2 pints of cider,that is my maximum,nothing more,even at weddings,social occasions etc etc,and i will not make a clown of myself again.
I know that there are many,like yourself,that can control their drinking habit.s,unfortunately,that is now becoming the minority.
I have seen guys leaving clubs in no fit state to drive their car,how many lives have been ruined by idiots who think they can drink and drive,too many,end of.... |
I understand your viewpoint now...totally.

Thanks Eloise,but at the same time i can understand where Allan is coming from,it is unfair on folk like him and others who like nothing more than an nice wee drink without having to pay way over the odds.
It's all down to intake,we know what we can drink,but unfortunately for young folk,they don't.

Well when I was a bit younger it was probably the same for me, I sort of grew out of it I suppose. I know now what happens when I take too much, it totally changes my personality and although I never actually got violent I was in danger of making other people violent - I would become a pest or say the most outrageous things. Also next day I wouldn't remember half of what had happened and also left myself open to mates adding bits on that never actually did happen .
So I sort of know my limits and happy to stick to them. Maybe I am just getting old of course  |

Or maybe like the rest of us you can see the damage it can do, it wrecks peoples lives, I have nothing against alcohol, but as with all things, in moderation.

I know exactly what ye mean Ricky.
I recall a time when my 4 mates and i were in Rotterdam for a pre-season tourny with the Hoops.
We went into this house of ill repute (a brothel)  and we were all fine,then didny realise our drinks had all been spiked.
About 30 minutes later,we were staggering around outside,and i said "That was a quickie,eh?"
The ladies robbed us of watches,dosh,rings and so on.
We went to see the cops and they just fell over,laughing at us all,never again.
