    I'm one year too young to go into this nightclub (I'm 17) in Dublin and I want to use my cousins ID who's 3 years older than me and we get mistaken for sisters a lot... Could using her ID work for entry or no ??

    Fraudulent use.

    Age restrictions are there for a reason.

    Not a good idea to be honest op.

    Are there really nightclubs in Dublin that allow under 21 iD?

    I've seen girls use ID's that looked nothing like them to get into clubs because of make up and them dying their hair!

    That's nonsense. I hardly went as a teen. Actually I never did and I regret it.

    Go enjoy yourself OP. Have one for me.

    Could work for entry and then some poor punter gets done for rape as he assumes everyone in the club is 18.

    You mean Statutory Rape? The age of consent is 17, and that offence has been changed.

    Go for it OP, if the ID doesnt get you past the bouncers, just hurl abuse at them while waving a nagin.

    Some things never change.
    I am 39 now, and when I was 14 I attended my first nightclub in London called The National in Kilburn. I used my 17 year old cousins doctored birth certificate as ID.
    Sometimes I wouldn't get in on the first attempt, but I would give it say an hour then try again when a different bouncer was on the door. I always got in, in the end.
    I wish the best of luck, and enjoy yourself. You are only 17 once and life is for living to the full. I had some of my best nights clubbing at 17; I remember it well even now 22 years later. Just rehearse your lines in the mirror at home many times before. So you are relaxed saying her date of birth and name as if its your own. Stare at the bouncers eyes when you talk, and you will appear confident and truthful. Lack of eye contact will give you away. Go for it is what I say.

    I was turned away with a passport at 29. It will be entirely ****ed off if you get away with it.

    In my experience most people get away with it!

    Nothing ventured nothing gained, OP.

    Also fair play for being cooler than I was at 17, I was nowhere near a nightclub in them days.

    When I was 17, I looked nothing like my elder brothers. I had to use Brad Pitt's ID instead.

    Depends on the club. You'll probably be grand though
