On fridays after the Saints match 3-10 pints depending on the result
The same on Saturday nights, but depending on how much I had the night before
Don't drink midweek anymore. (unless special occasion) Not able to get up for work next day
I'd say about, 6/7 pints and maybe 4/5 shots of JD in a week.
6 or 7 pints in a week. All on a weekend. No shots, no wine, no cocktails. Just pints.
reckon you might be in trouble yerself there good buddy :p .Quote:

Very little usually (drank bucketloads last weekend though)
Might have a glass of wine with dinner a couple of times a week.
Can't do the pub on worknights anymore, pay too heavy a price.
Usually drive to matches/gigs so wouldn't drink at them often.
Depending who I'm out with it's usually two/three pints and a chat if I do head to the pub, a sign I'm getting old now :o
You say that as if it's something you're striving to become.Quote:

These days I stick to beer. A couple of pints every second night, maybe a couple more the weekend.
I brew my own, and will have about 40 pints of stout ready in a couple of weeks, but I'll take my time drinking it.
I don't drink.
Don't drink during the week - coming into work with a hangover is not for me - and gave it up for Lent (and kept it!!) but now I'm back on the sauce, an average night is 6-8 pints, and maybe a shot or 2 of vodka.
on average i would say i drink maybe about 7 - pints a week with average of one shot during that time .. pretty poor for a student i know!
Do you find if you have not drank a drink in over 7 days you long for one?
A couple of bottles of wine a week easy.
If I go out with work, it used to be 5 or 6 pints on a Thurs and/or Friday night, then out after that on the vodka. But I came home in so wasted so many times, Ive cut back.
This week will be alot worse though, work are taking us out for the day for hitting target and are paying.
Last time this happened there was an awful lot of drink involved, but its good fun :D
Without a doubt. Last night, I hadn't drank in 2 days. I was thirsty for pints of Guinness after the match. Therefore, I went for scoops with other foot.ie users $Leon$, Don Vito, theGreenHen, and Dolby126. And yes, Don and Dolby got on like a house on fire.Quote:

12th man according to an old t-shirt of mine -you're not an alcoholic til you start going to meetings.Quote:

probably 20-ish pints a week and a bottle or two of wine.
Quit spirits years ago as I was a mean b a stard on the whiskey. not funny. not talking it up. not glorifying it -I was just just a mean messy fecker.
I get those cramps in my side too that pronane mentioned. It's your liver literally heaving under the strain.
Emmm...... after wanderers matches i'd go for 4 or 5 in the hibo. Saturdays i'd have 4-6 pints before heading clubbing. Where i'd have 10 vodkas and red bulls( buy them in 2's , it's cheaper) :p , and a couple of shots of the sweet sambuca!!! Depending on the occasion. Only drink Friday and Saturdays... :) Very rarely during the week!!! Only if United are playing a very important game!!! ;)
Seems very moderate on here so far :eek:
i normally do 2 nights a week (Fri&Sat - cant handle the next day, so very rare for me to venture out midweek)...
Id say id drink 8-11 pints per night with a few halfs thrown in. Depends though...i drunk thur/fri/sat/sun/mon over Easter. :confused:
When we travel to Dublin for example, theres a good 6-8 cans in there before the bar before the game....we usually end up in Ardee until 2am before arriving back to Derry at 4.30/5am
Going to a night club I wud drink 4-6 pints & a 3-4 shots. But then going to the pub(not going to a nite club after) I would only drink 1-2 pints and fizzy pop. But im not a big drinker but all my m8s are alcos and they are only 17/18.
Would you remember your whole night though? I could drink as much as I wanted if I was drinking a pint ever 45-60 minutes but if I wanted to enjoy myself and have a pint ever half hour I'd be blanked out after only my 8th. :eek: I still continue drinking and am told I still seem fine.Quote:

If I concentrated really hard for the whole night I wouldn't blank out but thats never going to happen. I am 22 have been drinking for 10 years now week in week out so have probably wrecked some organ in my body. :)
