Years and years of hedonistic excess
I can clearly remember the very first winter ball I went to in my first year at the pharmacy. Within ten minutes it was triple gins and cigars and other mischief.
If I tried that level of partying today I'd die.
this isn't due to pints, but due to lack of enough pints.
better a well rounded beer belly, than an appearance which looks like a survivor of the spanish inquisition.
urgs, 3 gin in ten minutes - my rule is start slowly and speed up - the other way round it makes incredibly drunk - liver needs a bit of a warm-up phase.Years and years of hedonistic excess

3 4 4 6 - for the first 4 hours - is a good measure - plus those inevitable pints of course.

The bar staff gave up soon after and let us do our own drinks.
I worked in a bar during my student years - guests like that have their own bottles and often special glasses, that their drinking habits aren't that obvious. I inherited a glass of that kind from a really nice lady, who came at least twice a day, downing half a bottle spanish brandy (veterano) each time. A smart lady, but not in regards to drinking behavior.
She made my life so much easier at that time, because I got about 50 to 100 euros tip money from her each time she came - she must have been wealthy to finance that.

Hell yeah man, those were the days!
Maunsel House never let us come back though, so high were the jinks
I have an idea and frankly it's disgusting that it's not been suggested before!

how could we possibly not have though about that - you are a genius.
seems a bit self serving.
No way! Already too many hanging around...
You don't get a vote anyway.
Too late...
Me and my best bud from college worked a summer at restaurant above a marina here. Alot of those types. One retired guy would come in for lunch all the time and have a bottle of moet usually by himself but occasionally w/ a lady friend.
Speaking of decadence that was a great summer and ended w/ me telling the owner of the restaurant what for after we "dared" accepted an invite to hang out at a boat at the marina after shift. He lived there on a big cabin cruiser. Went back the next day, sunday so the place was open, to "clean out my locker" and wasn't there. I told the manager, another friend, to tell the little mouse i was disappointed he didn't have it in him to come out of his hole. After i had verbally gone up on side of him and down the other ending with calling him a little, little man the night before. Ah good times.

Dude, I'm pretty sure that is the place that banned us after our first year student ball - translate as "mashup" party! I studied in bath, and the name just rings a bell, but I could be wrong?!
It does give us the opportunity to make some diy memes, and we'll have to be clever to get around any TJ risk - sounds like fun!
You would know.
I love nostalgia for things we'd never dream of doing now that we are older!
Noob. like you can make executive decisions ...what are you.. a post 1000 player? pft.
