Its still depressing.. 3 week away from your 18th -- getting ID'd everywhere INCLUDING the fucking heaven and hell (where the age limit seems to be 12..). Getting dressed up, ready and all that to be ID'd everywhere Oh well..
Well yes, you don't have to be 18 to drink. A glass of wine would be offered to go with Sunday dinner when I was a kid. Drinking isn't a big thing. Sure, a couple works as a social lubricant. Drinking to get drunk isn't a thing to do. I wish we in the UK would adopt more of a Europeon take on alcohol. Enjoy it with food…
