Oh sure you were on your date Bandage. Forgot about that. Up all night talking, swapping stories. Then the call on the phone after you’ve left her, “you hang up, no you hang up, oh look it’s nearly 5am…” Youthful love…

Had 5 pints last night and after a lovely long shower this morning felt fine and was in work for 10 (flexi-time). Have noticed I get locked fairly easily these days though due to having cut back significantly in the last few months.
Was up watching dvds of old games against Hearts and mulling over what team line-up Strachan was likely to go for. Girls are icky and I limit my contact with them.
you would want to be careful there you could end up catching cooties or even worse the clap…
When I think back to my time in my old employment I would say I was on the beer 3 out of the five days in the work week. These may not be all night session but the 6+ mark after work. There was always someone to go on the beer with. I remember one stage I wasnt going out that much for about a month and I realised it was because Bandage was in Shannon on a job and Clarkey was in Loughlinstown.
Then I became mates with Ball Ox who always went for beer after work - every night. The thing is he would only ever stay for three pints max, including Friday. On Friday’s though I went on the rip. As a result I was a zombie in work most of the time.
That has all changed now though. I had a life audit with my bro when I decided to leave that place and he told me to ‘get t’hell out of town to keep you out of trouble’. I did it, got a car as well forcing me to go home in the evening, and the midweek drinking has almost completely ceased.
Don’t remind us about Ball Ox and his drinking. Parading himself as a legendary drinker when he used to leg it home at 21.30 to catch the Eastenders repeat.
You have to admire that though. He had a plan and stuck to it. Whatever happened to him?
it’s definitely an age thing, used to be able to do a couple of mid week nights in a row as well as the ususal weekend sessions without a bother but now don’t even have the desire to go out mid week - work is painful enough without a hangover and like an old fella/baby/big girl i value a good nights sleep.
If i do go out on a wed/thurs i figure i may aswell have 10 pints + and stay out til 2/3 am as have 4 or 5 and get home early as i’m going to feel shit the next day regardless so it makes sense to at least do the dog on it and have a good night
Anybody about freeneys ? I’m back into the sauce in a big way. Haven’t been myself for months now.
@Batigol is your man for midweek pints but he wouldn’t set foot in Galway if you paid him.
Edit, I’ve just remembered it’s Friday, shur Friday is made for pints.
It’s Friday pal…
I’m off the beer
Probably no harm in giving Diageo a chance to stockpile over the next fortnight. They’ll need all the help they can get.
I had a skip of pints in there on Tuesday night and it fucked my week up. A mugs game.

put a rough numerical estimate on skip?
A skip is only 6/7 these days, that’s the way it’s gone now unfortunately.

I’m off it until the week of the final.
Or in other words, I’m off it next week 
Mugs are required for excessive drinking
