    Sure I didn't know what a naggin was until I was 14 & going to the underage disco.
    It cost about 5 punts back then. That's when money was money.

    It's the small glass bottle, 200ml as someone said, might be considered a 'single serving' if you weren't binge drinking.

    Fits in a handbag so it makes it easy to sneak into a night club.

    Next size up is a shoulder.

    4 American shots, 8 English shots, and about 5.5 Irish shots.
    It's purpose is to get someone half-tipsy.
    A 'shoulder' (400mls) gets you full tipsy, any more and you're drunk.
    That's the long and short of it.

    Nope, a "shot" is made up of 5 naggins. Each shot must be downed. Personally, I'm ****ed after 4, you should give it a try yourself.

    It's called a naggin because your boss nags you when you drink from it when your driving your ambulance at nine in the morning.

    It was five euro when I was 14, but that was for Grants Vodka. Shit was putrid. We used to neck that back in one, then swally a Red Bull straight after.

    A naggin of Smirnoff was only purchased after the granny had visited.

    Good times.

    a naggin is a woman that never stops complaining ... your mom perhaps?

    Ah, a naggin mixed into your bottle of coke, which you downed on the bus on the way to wherever you were going.
    I miss being 8.
