    <ok> I'm going to get one with my shandy so it looks like a chaser. <laugh>

    On a serious not, it's **** really. I set off with the best of intentions, but I drink the first ones too fast, by the time I notice I'm pissed, the others are already in my system and sense has gone out of the window. I don't go out for long sessions too often so the black dog's not here to often, but I feel for those that get gripped and get caught more often.

    Is that a wine? I tried going down that route, but it was a waste of time getting the glasses out. I was just tipping the content of the bottles straight down my neck., which kind of defeated the object.

    Dutch, let's get down to the nitty gritty - what did you do?

    Most of the time I wish I knew, the rest of the time I wish I didn't.

    If it involved anal sex and a tramp then he's got good cause to knock the sauce on the head.

    Anything else and I dare say he's worrying over nothing.

    I almost created a violent altercation with a poser in Leeds on Saturday, but I didn't flash or vomit or grope or anything like that throughout the rest of the night, so I am improving.

    I think we've all felt that shame and embarrassment after a big night. That regret...

    Get it out in the open, purge your conscience.

    On a serious note: if everyone else is drinking, it can be a bit naff. I remember once I went out but had to drive somewhere afterwards, so tried a Red Bull and Cola... the barmaid looked baffled. The problem is, most places don't seem to cater for many non-alcoholics and/or drivers, as everywhere only seems to stock J2O's as a non-alcoholic option, but after 2 they're really sickly.

    The all you can eat chinese in St.Stephen's does free soft drinks refills - my missus does a half n half (chinese pun not intended) of, I think it's Sprite and some sort of Fanta, but it tastes really nice together.

    Though I did see something in the HDM about Garbo's on Lowgate creating a 'non-alcoholic pub crawl' through the Old Town. Might be worth you checking it out and asking them about what they do?

    Spying is a bit strong.

    Secretly observing is how I'd describe it.

    I think that was one-off, it was 'pisshead awareness day', or something similar.

    As things are being brought out into the open can I say that it's a bit irritating when you ask me to change angles so you can get a better shot.

    If you like shandy, try using lager and Fanta - really popular in Germany (has a name but can't recall it; should have drank more of them!)

    Get on the turbo shandy - beer and Smirnoff Ice, that's a winner right there.

    Once, when I wanted to go out and not drink, I just got drunk anyway.

    Resistance is futile.

    It could have been worse.

    I was going to ask to join in but then saw it was Lee Langman.

    Note.

    I may have gone too far with that last comment.

    When I went out to Germany many years ago, they were all drinking beer and coke, half and half.

    Was surprisingly nice actually <ok>
