LOL, I haven't had a drink in about a week or so now. I'm concentrating more on getting fit for rugby season -- If I make the university team then I'll no doubt have some insane drinking stories to tell you all ;P

Nice going guys, on the abstinence... I, on the other hand, went to that festival for 3 days and obviously I got drunk. Not much to tell about except the bands were awesome because it's like Killswitch Engage, As I Lay Dying, The Casualties, MXPX, Metallica, and some more. Point: drunk moshpits are awesome.

Heh. I've never gotten drunk at a gig because they charge extortionate amounts for a pint. I remember my friend being charged £8 for a pint at a gig in London. EIGHT FUCKING QUID! He paid it too because he's a fool.

I think I controlled my expenses pretty well, but then again I must admit I only paid for half of what I drank, because certain people I know are awesome, if you see what I mean. I think I spent around EU50 per day on drinks and food, while a pint cost EU2.5. Again, the point is that I was drunk at the end of the night so it's all good.

EIGHT FUCKING POUNDS? WHAT THE FUCK? And I thought they were sometimes ripping us off here, £8 is just ludicrous. If you go to the right place here, you can easily get 10 pints for that price.

My punk friend got me into them a while back, and I think he put a few of their songs in my iTunes. I remember really liking them back then, although in the few years since my music taste has broadened considerably from what it once was, so I'm really listening to a lot of different stuff now. Haven't put on The Casualties in a while, but I might have to do that at some point.

Again, the point is that I was drunk at the end of the night so it's all good.

Heh. Were you allowed to bring your own alcohol into the festival? I've actually never been to a music festival in the UK due to unavoidable circumstances and lack of money for the most part, but I'm pretty sure most people take a couple of 6-packs with them.

EIGHT FUCKING POUNDS? WHAT THE FUCK? And I thought they were sometimes ripping us off here, £8 is just ludicrous. If you go to the right place here, you can easily get 10 pints for that price.

Well, that's the same in England, but it's just some venues realise that people are going to want drinks during the gig, and if they leave the venue they can't get back in, so they're forced to buy from the bar there. :/

I think usually the rule at festivals is: cans are allowed in the camping area but not in the concert area.

At festivals, in the campsite you're generally allowed whatever you want (although often, no glass is technically allowed, they'll only conviscate it if they see you holding it while entering, they dont mind after that really), and in the arena you have to buy drinks from the bar.

I'm currently drinking neat rum through a pink plastic straw, and it's making me rather happy. Is this what I've been reduced to? One of those unbearable happy drunks? HELP ME...!

I'm now pretty, very, quite drunk. Maybe that was a bad idea?

Nay, this one will not die.

Last weekend was my first weekend back from school and it was spent in the loving embrace of cheap light beer and hard liquor shots.

My roommates girlfriend comes to visit too and after making introductions and all that, she says that she has a friend for me and there was a decent chance we would get together later on in the night etc etc. So we go to the bars, and her friend meets us there and she's not bad looking. Well within the hook up range and all that, so I start making conversation with her and before I know it we're hitting it off. I remember thinking it was basically in the bag, when I suddenly get a call from one of my best friends who had graduated from school last year.

"I'm in town. Come meet up with us because I'm not going to be in town for a very long time after this."

And when I say this guy is my best friend, I really mean he's one of the best friends I've ever had. So now I was in a dilemma: most likely hook up with the girl or meet up with my good friend and a few other friends that were with him.

My penis screamed at me "THE ANSWERS OBVIOUS YOU MORON! FUCK YOUR FRIEND! HE'S INADVERTENTLY COCKBLOCKING YOU!"

And my head was saying "You're not going to see him again for a long time and you know it so go and see him. There will be plenty of other girls."

So I listened to my head and whether that was the right move or not is debatable. I had a good time with my friends. We drank and recalled days of old and had a good time. I thought maybe I could excuse myself early and get back to the girl but when I called my roommate, I learned that she had already gone home. So I probably missed a chance to get laid, but oh well.

Also my friend called again and said he was also coming down this weekend because he had some more free time and I was like dlaskkhgalkdghslkghslghs >:(>:(>:( but at least I get to have more fun with him.

Damn.

I think I described a similar situation a few pages back, except I was out with a friend and got talking to a very good looking girl who asked me to go onto another bar with her and her friend. Seeing as it was my friend's last night out before heading off to university though, I decided to stick around with him.

Like you say, always plenty other women out there. Letting one slip through the net every now and again is just life, really. :(

Sorry for being absent lately, but I wasn't home! I was in NYC chillin' around, and I did see a specific Stella Artois bar. Belgian beer. In the middle of the biggest city on earth. Obviously. I, on the other hand, mostly had to drink Heineken and Corona, which both suck balls.

My penis is still in a foul mood about it and barely speaks to me. I'm gonna liven him up with some drinks later tonight though and maybe we'll find someone to make him happy ;)

Ah shaddup BBM, I'm bitter that I'm missing out on it this year ;_;

You thinking of coming along next year? If you are then I'll say hello to you then, I suppose. If you're not then oh well, C'EST LA VIE.

next year, sure.

assuming i havent ditched you guys yet

also, got nicely drunk last night. Got to the stage where I got home, turned on th PC, chucked my clothes on the floor, made like 3 posts, then hit shutdown and fell asleep. Any more and i'd have made a real arse of myself with little much more gained, but more money spent, any less and i wouldnt have reached the full evening's potential.

I was thoroughly drunk when I got home last night and I made more than 3 posts so I believe I was acting like a dick last night. Going through my posts, I can already see that obvious fact. I hope nobody's feelings were hurt. I would feel terrible ;_;

Welcome to the club! =D

For the sake of it, let's post something I did recently.... Let's see... Oh yeah! I went to the pub last weekend (DUH) and I took EU2.5 with me. I managed to get drunk. The thing is, there were a lot of people I know, and before I even finished my glass, someone was already offering me a drink. I know it's cheap, but I still enjoyed it =P

Well enjoy that. My roommate is obsessed with the bottom shelf bourbon so that's what I get to have. We always take a shot of it before we go out on the weekends, and now we've accumulated so much that we're thinking of ways to get rid of it as much as we can.

I've managed to lay my hands on a bottle of Kronenbourg toffee apple caramel lager for tomorrow, among other things. Also, decided it was time to restock the fridge. The pictures pretty bad quality, but there's forty quids worth of lager in there :)

Fuck. I haven't had a beer in ages -- been concentrating too much on getting fit. Also, hoping that if I don't drink for a while my tolerance will decrease and it'll be cheaper for me to get drunk when I go to university. ;P

I had to work. I'll be honest, I forgot about it until about a week before when Luis said "so when are you gonna be in London?" "what you on about? ah... London". Anyway, I told Luis that I was gonna try and get some time off work for it but with such short notice it was next to impossible. I told the L man beforehand though. Roll on next year, I'll be there whether I have to quit my job or not :)

I'm right there with ya. Went out last night with some old friends and had a fair few drinks... today I feel pretty worse for wear. I haven't really been out in a while either in lieu of sorting everything out for when I go to university.
