    I was 21.

    I believed that my family were out to get me so I locked myself in my late grandmothers bungalow for a weekend with a supply of crisps and stayed awake by taking caffeine tablets my cousin had brought me from America.

    I was sectioned shortly afterwards.

    Not out of my twenties yet op..
    But I have to be honest..

    Had a prolapsed disk in my back once and was crippled with the pain.
    Was on Vallium and strong pain killers.
    A friend called over on the last day of suffering and off we went to a match.
    Afterwards he forced me to have a hot one.
    Then blank, until 2.30am in a night club 25 miles away being wheeled out the door by a bouncer in a bottle container thingie.
    Don’t know how I got there, don’t know how I got home, but I woke up the following the worse hangover and went to puke causing a recurrence of the injury, and another week lying on the floor.

    Still in my twenties but so far...

    The craziest thing I can remember is trying to break into the storeroom of a bar.

    I'd robbed the keys from a barmaid and I thought they were for the storeroom. With someone else watching out, I tried to open the storeroom with the keys. However, they didn't work. So then I started throwing my shoulder at it until I realised the bouncer was looking at me. Then, I ran out into the street and walked home by running through the back alleys.

    Was in the Gaiety Theatre one night years back when it was a night club. Finding the place to be a bit of a maze we ended up on a staircase we knew we were not supposed to be on.. At the time we didn’t give a f*ck and decided to explore..so up we went, right to the top we found a room, it was dark and I can’t remember what was in it..through that room there was a toilet and then another door..we went through that door and we were on the roof ‘No way lads were on the f*ckin roof of the Gaiety’. There was four of us and we all had pints which we drank up there..We decided we’d go back down and get more pints and come back up..Which we did at last orders..only three of us this time (one went home/wussed out). So there we were back up on the roof of the Gaiety drinkin out pints and lookin around, over the wall to the street etc. there is another room on the roof…In we went, to discover we were in the attic space..it was full of huge air conditioning tubes and some old lighting equipment.. we could see through holes in the floor in certain parts down to the actual theatre part..we could see the bouncers walking through all the rows of seats and thought **** the place is closed everyone is gone..if we go down now they could think we were trying to rob the place..we also heard noises and thought someone was coming up and we spent 20 mins ****ting it hiding behind the air conditioning tubes.
    Anyway we decided we were not going to go back down the stairs and decided to see where we could get to from the roof..there was loads of walls and roof sections and the plan was to get lower then we were step by step..this involved navigating all the roof space in the pitch dark and dropping off ledges to a floor level below and then taking it from there to see how we could get another level lower..We reached dead ends, and had to climb back up, we had roof tiles break under our feet. It was f*ckin dangerous and scary but we were pissed and I was with two people who were not fans of ‘sensible’. Eventually we got down about two stories and had maybe three to go..i was at a loss as I couldn’t figure where to go next when my mate spotted a fire escape in the distance, I couldn’t even see it but took his word and we headed over to it..
    We got to it and ran down another level and then it ended still 20 foot above the ground…a ladder type arm at the end of the fire escape extended out horizontally, it was far too dark to see where it went but in my opinion it was out only option, I wasn’t going all the way back up..i began to crawl out the ladder thing feet first facing up..when I reached a few meters out I heard this really loud screeching sound..it was the metal, the ladder started to travel to the ground gathering speed hinged to the fire escape..i thought ‘im ****ed, broken leg for certain.’ It hit the ground and I was still hanging on luckily unhurt.. I was in a narrow lane..pitch black, I lit my lighter to see some beer kegs and decided to walk straight ahead..i got to a steel door with a bar going across the back of it..i pressed the bar and the door opened..i looked out to see a lane looked to the right to see Grafton Street..we f*uckin made it, we left the Gaiety Theatre via the roof..crazy night..told me ma that story and all!

    I would start at the beginning TBH. :D

    My own crazy stories, Dressing up as a woman for a laugh and charity, Sex on a ferriswheel involved tossing the girl who I was screwing out of the way when we neared the ground, Getting shagged while in a tent with 4 people....a very small tent! :D, There are a few more, but I am usually drunk so can't remember them!

    In Spain years ago, I left a 24 hour bar to go home one night on my own...smashed. Decided I was clever enough to find my own way home even though the place we were staying was like a maze - that we had already been lost in everyday up until this night.

    So there I was, plodding along locked until eventually I came to a Motorway. I figured I'd been walking for around an hour and the Motorway gave me more of an idea where I was........Nowhere near our apartment - I had walked the opposite direction of where we were staying:rolleyes:

    Anyway there were no taxi's about and i just sat there on the side of the road, sobering up, horrified at the thought of walking anywhere until suddenly.....I saw this little Spanish fella getting out of a van and asked him directions. He was a chirpy little fella, delighted to hear I was Irish. Strangely enough , when he offered, I did'nt think twice of hopping into his van which resembled del boys Reliant Robin and off we went.

    Eventually we stopped & I thought to myself "Yeah this is it, I know this place" but OF COURSE I KNEW THIS PLACE - The boll$@ had brought me straight back to the bar i had walked from and insisted we went in to drink Whiskey together. My mates had gone by then but It was nuts, He ended up buying me more whiskeys than Eamon Dunphy could handle until he finally ran out of money. Time to go home? Not at all - All I remember is yer man handing me 2 boxes of cigarettes and asking me to wait for him while he went outside to get more money. I couldnt go on anymore but the pass machine was right outside the door - how would I be able to leave this little ball of generosity?

    So when he went out to the Pass machine, i sneaked up and stood behind the door of the bar and waited. As soon as he walked past me, I bolted it - straight out the door and down the road, looking over my shoulder the whole time.

    What happened then ? I walked the wrong way home again:o

    When the Gaiety Theatre was a nightclub, the poster and friends decided it would be fun to go up some stairs while drunk...this led to the roof, they tried for ages to get down and eventually did thanks to a metal fire escape and ladder, surprised to end up beside Grafton Street of all places...

    Summary complete:)

    One of the oddest things I did as a teenager was to kick a hedgehog over a crossbar on a GAA pitch.

    Streaking down a street in the middle of a proper badass thunderstorm in america would be about the height of it for me...

    Other than that, not exactly crazy, more just plain stupid, not too long ago I got fed up waiting for a taxi home from the club so I decided it would be a brilliant idea to just strut it home. I live 3 miles away, country roads all the way home, A young female walking on her own pure blocked at 3am in the pitch black dodgy as f*ck back roads...seemed like a good idea at the time but unbelievably stupid of me thinking back on it. But, I had me a good wee time of it anyways, took the heels off, got the music going on the phone, I just had me a wee party all the way home. Except THE BLISTERS the next morning, oh...my...word...never again, never again!
