It depends on the booze really, for me also it depends on the setting.

I could drink for Ireland by myself in my room when I'm annoyed and just listen to music and be fine, the last time I did that I found myself dancing to the radio on GTA: Ballad of Gay Tony and then falling and ended up falling asleep on the floor.


The other week I only had about 7 Cans of Harp or something [this wasn't in my room lol] and was completely pissed; Niall is a witness :laugh:.

So yeah it depends on the booze and probably the setting, sometimes.

Harp? :joker:

Are you on the dole and from Wigan?

Fresh air's a bitch. I know that much.

Just checked and it's actually on Sackville Street round the corner. You must have good ears though..

Sorry but what is wrong with Harp?

:bored:

Bow down to the king.

karpackie lmfao @ the name

The Polish took our jobs but they brought their booze with them god bless them.

Polish Lager over Irish Lager? Really? :laugh:

I haven't tried it - so can't comment but anything that can be ate that comes from that country tastes like pigeon vomit - I imagine the drinks would be almost as bad?

:joker::joker:

Pilsner lager > all

Poor pigeons. I bet their vomit is just as gross as anyone elses......

Slavics have an imhuman tolerance to booze and produce some of the finest beer and vodka in the world.

Ireland has a great reputation with booze but it certainly doesn't lie with lager. Moreso stout and whiskey.

Polish booze is the business. It's cheaper and stronger.

One thing I have noticed - I can drink 5% cider 'til the cows come home. Drink the same strength lager at the same quantity and .... well, oh dear....

pre drinks = 8 cans
out = between 6-10 bottles and abooooooot 4 shots

thank god for bavaria
i can get 8 cans for 8 euro in a centra in town

oh and 4 euro wine from tesco is the business

Yes, Stu. I can actually take in quite a lot of booze, really. I don't get drunk easily - but I do get drunk often!

Generally quite a bit before I get drunk.
But it also depends on how much I have eaten that day. I usually have to drink a lot but then it hits me like a ton of bricks randomly and I'm never really eased into drunkenness. I did 20 shooters in a bar once all in a row and I still was not drunk after that so had 3 vodka limes and then ot hit me really quick. If I haven't eaten anything that day though I can get drunk of one or two vodka mixers.

But I hardly am ever sick, only been sick once.

Usually:
Pres: 2 ciders and a vodka mixer
Out: Lots of shooters/shots until I'm drunk. Generally vodka based drinks.

Oooh. Interesting thread. Don't get the vomiting guys? What are ye doing wrong? Only time I ever got sick after drink was when some gobshoite gave me a two litre bottle of poteen, which I thought was water, and slugged out of accordingly. There was a time when all I drank was neat Jameson. Shot after shot after shot. And I'd murder anyone who put water, ice or anything else into it. But it made me gnarly. At college I used to win all the drinking competitions. A particular favourite was a tequila shot, a bailey's, a tequila shot, a bailey's, a tequ........... you get the picture, until everyone bar one sitting around the table had fallen down. I never fell down.
I have grown up and got sense. Nowadays, a nice bottle of Merlot - just the one - or seven or eight bottles of beer, once or twice a week and I'm happy.

I don't drink a lot of alcohol,I will at a party obviously but in the main I am just a social drinker,prefer a few drinks with friends and/or family.
I get sleepy if I have too much to drink anyway.

I agree with the bolded bit. But generally speaking alot depends on what I drink, wine, I can drink one bottle, if I drink even one extra glass after that I'll be sick but I can switch to another drink and be fine. Beer I could drink forever, I get to a certain level of drunkness and I start to get a hangover. Spirits I've banned myself from drinking more then two in a night, especially vodka, I used to drink it all the time but it made me go loopy, have black outs and usually an argument.

Same as Scotland.........plus offies/supemarkets/garages not allowed to sell untial 10am of a morning. On Sundays until 12.30pm. There are ways around that by unscrupulous taxi companies who will deliver a bottle of spirits @ 2am plus 40 fags - but that's dodgy.

I was amazed when I visited my cousin in Surrey many moons ago - we were low on supplies to drink for taking the train on the way to London to see Scottish Claymores play at Stamford Bridge. This Sunday she drove us to Asda @ 09.00 smoking a joint on the way - just so the Scottish guests could get more supplies.

Most amusing thing I've ever read on TiBB - do you mean a water shandy Patrick?

I can drink a lot, Pimms seems to just be water to me right now.. addicted.

Too much beer & cider makes me bloated and I stop mainly because of that. Wine gets me drunk pretty fast mind! Over Xmas I am usually hard to get drunk because that's all I do every day LOL
