In all honesty I do wish it were a lie

I reckon someone could do 16 pints of 99p beer if they started in the afternoon, there can’t be that much beer in it. Piss a pint out, pour a pint in. Maybe throw in a tactical chunder if you outpace your bladder. Then go home, vomit some more, pass out, and have a three day hangover. Job done.

10 pisses

youd be correct about the pub as I don’t leave town for drinking

I’d been in there since 2ish

had some food as well to keep it down

its relatively easy if you space it correctly

16 pints is 9088ml.

At 4% ABV, that’s 363ml of alcohol.

I’ll be generous and call that 36 units.

Assuming a 2pm start and instant process at a rate of 1 unit per hour, you should be safe to drive by 4am on Saturday morning.

Please don’t get in the car tomorrow.

Zero intention or need to drive until Tuesday

with the driving standards I’ve seen this week, I’ve been looking forward to a few days off

Dunno, I guess if it can't keep up the body does a Southern Water and lets it flow unprocessed?

Back out the way it came in?

I’m sure it’s possible if you’re all day drinking all day, say 10 am to midnight,. 14 hours . The  body can process a pint an hour of weakish  beer ( <4%).

doorbell camera , very handy for looking at your frozen up car , then snuggling back into bed to listen to the neighbours scraping their cars ice off .

Looking back on the days when I would leave a fan heater in the car and flick the garage switch in the morning to defrost the car whilst I did the 4 S's and breakfast before going to work ...

As @MikeR will confirm, 3 pints and my wallet gives up. 4 pints and I start vomiting.  

Over the whole Christmas break From Wednesday 18 Dec until 9 pm on New Year's Day, I have drunk maybe 15 units. 

At a new years eve party. I drank one unit. Interesting to see other people pissed thou. You realise how much shite they believe, but manage to keep to themselves until they've had 6 pints.

You'd think that wouldn't you. Years of practice and I still couldn't get to them limits!

I’m sure I’ve got close to that going to rugby internationals at Twickenham in the 80s. Start on the train at about 10, then in pub until half an hour before kick off, several cans during the match (they even let you in carrying Watney 7s back then) , back to the pub after the match until catching last train home at midnight. There might even have been a can or two on the train. Minimum twelve, my wallet said about 20!

Couldn't afford it these days at £7 a pint and £100- 150 for a match ticket.

decided to try a halfords cheapo front wiper blade on the C1 for the sake of a tenner in time for the mot on Monday ,

its to replace  the quality Bosch one that was chattering and skreeching across the last bit of screen ....

it was quiet and effective in the cold air on the way home .......  see how long it lasts ..

the coat hanger on the rear wiper got a coat of black paint to keep it happy ...
