Remember young lady I started drinking liqueurs when I was 12 or 13. So by the time I was 15 or 16 I was an old hand. In the summer I could usually be found with a bottle of 'reserve' or sherry complete with crystal glass whilst soaking in the atmosphere of my local then called the Green Carpet Inn (local park) with my peers. I could never understand why the lads would swill freely from plastic cider containers. Twas so boorish and uncouth.

Lmao. I would have a beef with the setting though. We had the benefit of lush fields (served well as private areas if needed) nearby stream to keep our drinks chilled.. the smell of cow s.hit so fresh it would knock your socks off yet compliment the wine so well that you wished someone would walk past with a cheese platter ;-)

No filth around to take our drinks.. We were spoiled :-D

I only brought one bottle of wine, but there was a method in my madness. I started drinking it to avoid having to go to the toilet in the bushes. The other girls knocked back the cans and needed to go every few minutes, and after a few cans- pissed, in a heap, and knickers round your ankles was not a good look ;-)

Ha, I remember going down to the lads on a saturday night, I was one of the very few that worked in that group, I bought a few bottles of bud, they couldn't understand it. I only bought 4 too, some people couldn't understand that I didn't want to get drunk. I was 16 :P

Started around 15, in the pubs by 16. I was something like the 'S.hit brick' of the group. Accepted but never conformed to the norm. While they were working the knacker look, I prob looked like I was on a boozy picnic. Corkscrew in pocket, bottle of chardonnay at my side.. Wasnt long doing that before I hit the pub. Doctored an ID but it was never asked for :-/

Yup, and I loved it. BBQ's in bushy park with 6 cans of dutch goodness.

Ahh I can relate to this :pac:

Ya know I used to buy dutch due to financial constraints but I've grown to actually like the taste. These days I'd pick it over some other beers

Started drinking regularly when I was 17. I used to be mad into knocking back shots and mixing new cocktails. These days I prefer a pint of quality european beer. None of your cheap bland american shíte for me!

16 and never been pissed.

by 17, there was no stopping me. 19 now and not looked back.

First few months were mad, seriously though I'm very calm now. I'm a "Four down the local" kind of bloke, not one of them students you see on the telly:pac:

I am like that with ouzo. I remember my mother brought a bottle back from Greece years ago that I polished off in one sitting. The mere smell of it now still makes me wretch.

Yes, quite often. Altered my provisional drivers license absolutely perfectly and was able to use that to get into clubs when I was 16 or 17! Also did the knacker drinking thing... didn't enjoy it at all.

Got caught locked when I was about 15, and got in quite a bit of trouble by the folks

Yep beer and whiskey down the back of the cinema when I was 15. Needed it to get through The Talented Mr. Ripley.

started drinking on a regular basis around 15. i'm 24 now and still get asked for ID occasionally. afaik it's not illegal for children to drink alcohol, it's illegal for them to buy it.

Yeah it's illegal for them to buy it and it's illegal to buy alcohol for a minor, and it's illegal for a minor to be in possession of alcohol in public and it's illegal for anyone to be drunk in public.

So basically the only time they can legally drink is if they stumble upon alcohol in their own house that no one claims ownership of.

started drinking on a regular basis around 15. i'm 24 now and still get asked for ID occasionally. afaik it's not illegal for children to drink alcohol, it's illegal for them to buy it. never did any drugs as a youngster, thought they were "wrong". drinking was good craic, bit of socialising. didn't do much "knacker drinking" aka drinking on a field of whatever. like a previous poster, as of today I'm off the drink for as long as possible. too expensive and unhealthy to get drunk on a regular basis. can't drink in moderation.

I started when I was 16 in 5th year. I was one of the last out of my friends to start drinking so I was fairly happy with myself, and I took it easy at the start.

I feel comfortable admitting it on a popular internet forum because Obama told the world that he inhaled frequently. We're alike.

dSTAR

I tried alcohol for the first time when I was 12 or 13 when I would pour myself a glass of my parents Irish Velvet. I wasn't even aware it was alcohol. All I know it tasted yummy. It wasn't long after that I started to actually purchase my own grog.

That's funny. I'm 24 and often can't get into a pub without ID.

I was asked by someone behind the bar for ID when i ordered once. He himself looked barely above 18 so i told him if he showed me his i'd show him mine. That statement didn't go down too well...

Krieg

Yep, started when I was 16 and went drinking every Saturday until I turned 18

Holsten

Yes I did, and it was more fun than drinking after 18 has been.

antodeco

Yup, certainly did. Never really got asked for ID, as I looked older than all my friends. Im 27 now. Get asked for ID, then laughed at for being old. Weird logic! Dont really drink much, and as of today, may not again!
