But no one bats and eyelid at professionals across the land who regulary have whiskey throughout the day and then sink a bottle of wine once home.

Oh yeah, I still go out more often than once a month or whatever

But I dont actually LIKE the taste of alcohol. So I drink pop when I dont wanna be pissed. I cant imagine anyone liking the taste of alcohol tbh, especially lager/beer/cider


Edit. Just realized my first post came across in a totally different way to what I meant

I dunno. I reckon a beer is the most refreshing thing on a hot day. I do quite like the taste of beer. I like the taste of some whiskeys too, mostly peaty scotches.

I'd agree with that but with the moreish nature of alcohol I can't just sink 3 or 4 cans and leave it at that which is a shame because the drinking is really at it's best when it first starts to excite you. It's all downhill after those first few yet it's virtually impossible to not want to go on.

As for alcohol not tasting nice ... balls to that. Few things are nicer than a good Guiness.

I just don't like the hangover feeling. That's the only objection I have to getting drunk, even though I'm wasted so often.

to be social

whats the point going out to get pissed up, when you just end up out of pocket and feeling **** the next day

[Kerry]

Lagers nice on a hot day. Also if you're sat outside in the evening cider and orange is so refreshing

Same. I never usually get too bad because, although I drink a lot, I drink slowly so I never get to a stage where I don't know what I'm doing.

Madness. It's a delicious beverage. Pulled in a good pub mind you. No watered down club nonsense or cans or bottles. That's heresy.

Guiness is super easy to drink, tastes great, is just about the right strength, and is a proven source of iron.

It also has this odd tendancy to wake my body up at 6 or 7 the next morning feeling fresh as a daisy. If I go back to sleep I have awfully strong dreams because of the sudden influx of proper REM sleep.

I think i need to visit ireland to have a real try

And it doesn't get you drunk quickly. I usually dilute mine with coke, though.

I notice it helps if you feel unbearably tired.
