PB 4.2 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 The key is to drink only once per week. That way you stay lean because booze plus munchies mean some weight gain. I like to drink about 25 units when I drink though which is normally about 8 of the large bottles of beer. The next day is always a lazy one, normally watching football on Sky followed by a light gym session which helps me sleep the following evening. But I'd rather go balls deep in alcohol once a week than have a real ale every night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know folk who appear pretty pished after 2 pints, a few who still look and act the same after 12, and everything in between. I certainly haven't read any of these posts as being boastful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest_Man#1 Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Yeah I can't believe some are trying to say that a certain, fairly reasonable amount, would undoubtedly get everyone drunk. I went to uni with a guy who just could not get pished, seemingly regardless of what he drank. Until one night people bought him 9 litres of Frosty Jacks manky rocket fuel cider. Still wasn't wildly drunk and throwing up, but at least had a bit of a stagger. Whereas if I had 3 litres of the stuff I'd be fairly steaming. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't his usual choice, I assume it wasn't just the cheapest high percentage stuff people could buy to try and get the boy steaming. Vile drink. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Kinnear Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Had my last alcoholic drink on 5th August and never felt better. Been to loads of nights out including gigs where in the past I would have been blitzed and it hasn't bothered me. Don't honestly think I will ever go back on it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A.F.C Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Jacking it for good after Christmas and only one pint or so until then. I enjoy it but it's just not worth it. The whole Scottish macho drinking culture saddens me. So you can go into a bar and buy a legal produce and drink it. Wow you must be something special. Longest I've gone before was five months or so so I know I can do it for good. With the new price increase its good timing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an emotive subject for some. I have never been able to do moderation but it has always been a big part of my life. Not having booze around is like a bereavement - and a bad one, not just an old granny or other decrepit relative. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
