    If you allow 30 min per pub. Thats 6 hours. So 5:30 would have you finished by 11:30. The 30 min has to allow for travel between pubs and all bathroom breaks as well.
    From experience. The start is grand but by pub 7 or 8 it's going to take longer and longer to get served as the pubs gets busy with the normal crowds. And as you get drunker your going to not want to move on.

    Wear a stupid jumper and be a dick. That's about it, really.

    Don't forget the puke breaks, and time to wipe the puke of your shoes before you go into the nightclub. Bring tissues.
    Actually, do you really think a nightclub is gonna let a load of youse in with 12 pints on board?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 59 ✭✭Swiftly


    So many grouches. Enjoy your 12 pubs

    Don't mind the miserable scrooges on here, OP. They probably don't have any friends to do the 12 pubs with, hence their bitterness. God forbid someone enjoys themselves over Christmas.

    I'd recommend drinking bottles instead of pints, you'll be sick of it after the 7th pub otherwise, and your night will be ruined. Start early, maybe 4pm, so you're not rushing. Lastly, try eating something around the half way point, it'll do you the world of good. Enjoy!

    Well without sounding like a macho man Yes I do think that. Why? I've done it before and I'm not from Dublin.

    Remember the next day you will feel awful, and at worse you could die.
    In extreme cases, you could die. Overdosing on alcohol can stop you breathing or stop your heart, or you could choke on your vomit. Binge drinking can affect your mood and your memory and in the longer term can lead to serious mental health problems.

    thank you, great practical advice.

    As if any of these bitter eejits could have swayed my decision to do it or not

    I attend no friends anonymous.

    My name is Robert and I have no friends, (then my new friends give me a hug)

    I could easily drink 12 pints, I would just prefer to do it in the one place.

    We are many things my young friend, old, wise, worldly and eager to pass on the advice gleaned from a lifetime of experience.:)

    Bitter, not so much.

    And the ignorance of youth teaches me to innately ignore you and find out for myself.

    And when you're throwing your ring over a bouncer's shoes outside Copper's two hours before opening time, in a stupid looking jumper with a penguin on it, the tiniest hint of a smile will form over your tear and kebab strewn face as you finally realise, 'hey, them guys on the internet were right':)

    Don't do it son.
