Christmas Drinking Season

I am the same with the exception that 10 pints of any lager in a few hours would probably kill me.

If I stick to wine I can clear a couple of bottles but the next day would be a total write-off. Cheap date me! :D

My brother can do 3 bottles of heavy red on a night in. I'd have my head in the telly after one.

Keep me on carling I can do 10-12 pints in a few hours without a problem. No issues, no dramas.

 

Throw one spirit or a glass of wine in there or even a couple of premium rate lagers, its goodnight Irene and a total game changer.

 

I'm the total opposite.  Can knock back a fair bit of whisky without an issue but a couple of strong beers and I'm feeling it.

 

Mixing wine and ale/whisky is a fcuking huge no no!

 

Fridge is stocked with a selection of IPAs and I've a fair few whiskys waiting to be opened :)

 

I found myself slurping the cold remains of mulled wine in a pan on the hob before I went to bed last night, complete with cinnamon sticks and oranges etc my mrs likes to make.  Might have to be a dry Jan at this rate ;) 

I can sup copious amounts of clear spirits but wine has me slathering after a few glasses. Odd really.

It still amazes me, grown adults admitting to drinking large quantities of alcohol, and thinking "it's cool".

 

A bit like smoking round the back of the bike sheds @ school when you're 14.

 

It ain't.....

You'll be pleased to know I drank about 15pints of Strongbow last night with Mr H, the night before I had 10 cans of Strongbow

 

Today I feel fucking dreadful but I shall probably drink another 10 pints of Strongbow when I've been to my mums to drop the presents off

 

I'm just struggling to wake up at the moment

I can't physically get that much liquid down my throat. Having said that - I can get through a bottle of vodka.

I used to sell Estrella in my bar, supped enough of it too in my time over there. Bloody good tackle if you want to end up rendered

Mahou. What a pint that was. I first encountered it on the "let's finish the barrels" day at Bradshaw Cricket Club Beer Festival. Fucking hell, two day hangover!

First encountered it at Madrid away at 50 cents a 330ml can.

Had it at a family do in Wigan earlier this year

 

Had been drinking some normal strength ale and felt sober

 

Just sort of presumed it was normal strength and had 2 or 3 to finish the night off

 

Ended up leathered and fell out a minibus and fucked my ankle up pretty bad not been able to run for the laSt 10 months

 

Fuck off wigan

I've been bought a bottle of 50% gin for Christmas. Is it too early to open?

Not touched a drop yesterday or today

 

Bastard virus

Always driving on Christmas Day (driven to in laws in Heaton so far then picking t'lad up from his mum's in Wigan later) so done my supping on Friday and Saturday. Never been a cider drinker but really getting in to Strongbow Dark Fruits.

Do I have a pre-emptive Rennie now or wait until the heartburn actually kicks in?

I've ended up lumbered with a member of the family who is an utter cunt.

 

So whilst I'm hoping you all have a great day, it can more or less fuck off as far as I'm concerned.

 

I've got loads of whisky

Same here

 

Was shitting water all day yesterday

 

And panicking every 5 mins thst I was going to shit myself

 

The drive over to horwich was the worst 30 mins of my life

Now you know how we feel when you come out

Wife thinks she's pushed the boat out buying Prosecco, she thinks because it's fizzy and the label looks sparkly then it's good... two bottles in and burping like fuck

Rhubarb gin, advocaat and lemonade. It's really rather good.

Sloe gin for this cat.

 

Ho ho ho
