Gazza 30 tins of Spesh Brew A Day!
God I thought I was tanning the bevvy a bit heavily lately! Surely 30 tins of Special brew (9%) is an impossible drinking feat! Each day?!?

i took a crate of 24 to glastonbury and brought about 5 home after the 5 days
27 to drink in 16 hours, that is like one every 30 mins, and he probably knocks them over, loses them, forgets he's opened some and leaves them about the place.
I'd bet that first thing in the morning he is so crook, that he has to neck 4 to feel normal. :(
How bloody depressing!
Yup, oh and if you just stop drinking, cold turkey, you can die.
What dead?
Yeah, that about covers it.
Seriously, is that true? If a severe alcoholic stops swallowing any alcohol then he can die because of that?
I didn't know that.
I saw him on several occasions literally fall out of his car after he had (perfectly) parked in the street. He was so paraletic he couldn't even find the keyhole to the car door, but he had managed to drive god knows how many miles in that state from work to home, and I'll bet that he was a perfect driver from A to B.
It's astounding how much control an alcoholic has with levels that would send most into a stupor.
For all of his faults he did make the best curry I have *ever* had. It seriously was incredible.
It reminds me of a guy in my town whos solicitor tried to get an a.b.h. sentance reduced by saying he was too drunk to know what he was doing apparently hed drank in the space of 4-5 hours.
12 Pints of Stella
11 Bacardi Breezers
2 Small bottles of Vodka
+
2 E's
Now anyone who drank that much most likely wouldnt know what they were doing but at the same time i doubt they would even be able to walk let alone put someones head through a shop door window.
Needless to say the jury didnt buy it one bit
A hardcore alchy could probably do it as a bender, but I'm thinking you couldn't do it everyday. The sheer volume of liquid is a problem whereas say vodka is less to take in.
I know he drinks a lot, but 28 cans a day? not that stuff, its like petrol. I think its the beer talking :D
Must've got him to hospital on time.
Wonder if he still eats loads of Mars Bars?
didn't i tell you that while we were playing runescape? i seem to remember making up that a famous celeb had died.
Nah! I think my ma told me while I was on the phone to her? Just realised though I refer to Gazza as the late Mr. Gascoigne in my review of Gazzas Super Soccer in the Speccy Bible oops :lol:
give it a few years and it'll be bang up to date. :-D
That reminds me of my mates dad. He was a business man boozer, liquid lunches etc.
My mate used to go on about how his dad couldn't walk but could still drive perfectly on a regular basis.
I had my doubts about that having been pretty drunk a few times myself and low and behold one Monday I walk around to his house on the way to school and there's skid marks over next doors garden, my mates drive way and then his garden leading to his dads car "parked" sideways just a few centimeters from the house............
30 cans a day is something I hope I never drink. It would wipe me out sooooo badly. I think some people are better built for drinking than others.
Yes it is. Alcohol withdrawal can kill, so too can barbiturate withdrawal I believe.
As I understand it, heroin withdrawal isn't itself life threatening though.
So I guess its the continual drinking that makes the body want more to get the same effect?
That night stays in my memory mostly because the place was absolutely packed and it was like being in bedlam. It took so long to get a drink from the bar that we paid a waiter to bring us a round every 15 or 20 minutes. Consequently our table was constantly packed with glasses, some empty (the waiter was a bit lax at taking them away), some part empty and new ones arrived regularly.
I did get drunk a few times in the following years but never needed to drink quantities like that again. What I didn't know then was that my body was intolerant of yeast and when I found out 20 years after that that yeast was causing the painful lumps I had suffered since I was a kid, I packed in the booze and found I didn't need it to go out and enjoy myself.
So, anyway, what's 12 pints in new money(tins)?

30 Bottles of Brown Ale, there's only 2 people I know who believe that story, and that's the 2 people I started the all day session with.
Mind you at about the same age me and my friends used to occasionally like some cheap cider as well. Before I went to college me and my friends could down about 4 litres each of gutrot a night. We only did it cos' it was cheap, and we were bored, we used to have compos to see who could driunk the most. Had some fun times with that stuff but it leaves you feeling like you've been kicked in the belly, and your brain has been replaced with sawdust.
Jeez that's good...I managed 13 in an evening before back when I was 18... with a couple of jd and coke chasers, but I felt pretty rough the following day...
Put me right off drinking! (Although it took a few years to kick in ;) )

Spirits, on the other hand, are more drinkable - I can happily open and finish a bottle of Jack Daniels (with enough coke to dilute!) over the course of an evening :smile:
good times.
i really hate drinking now, i mean i would still love to get drunk all the time, but i get scared that i am going to do something bad. like shag a trannie and get aids or something.
the last time i got plastered was on a work do, and i can't remeber much of what i said or did, but when i came beck to work one of the married women seemed quite freindly towards me. i remember talking to her, but no idea what about. i wish it hadn't happened, althoguh she did bring me some cookies the other day.
im pretty good at vomiting, i can carry on drinking afterwards. I once vomited on a cash machine, the guy behind me in the queue wasn't happy. 'fight the power!!'
I remember when the early cash machines had a plastic cover that lifted up when you put your card in to get access to the keypad. I wondered if you could time a barf so that you got it in under the sheet after you collected your cash and card. This would leave a nice triangle of barf under the sheet waiting to land on the next users pants :-)
After which I proceeded to go around the whole congregation telling them how I was going to marry the girl I was with (I had been only dating her two months).
Aparently it took them 20 mins to get me from the disco to the car park and into a car.
I knew I would probably not remember much in the morning so when I got home I attempted to write down all the silly things I had done. Of which only some turned out legable when I tried to read it the next day.
I never got a hang over though. All that happens to me the next day when I drink like that is that I want to sleep lots. Then I'm fine.
I almost did, we got engaged. However, after being with her for four years I realised she was a emotionally selfish, materialistic spend-a-holic who was sinking herself and me further and further into debt. Once the money ran out she could't buy anymore stuff so left me for a flash git with a nice car (but as it eventually turned out not much else).
It was one of the the best things to happen to me. About 6 months later I met my wife, who had her beat in almost every aspect.
I remember when they put the first cash machine in round the corner from where I used to live. Everyone had been complaining there was no cash machine. Then when they got one it was too sheltered off and people were scared to use it incase they got robbed. Then years later they put one round the corner, and one over the road in one of those information point things.
Anyway the point of the story is all 3 of them get relentlessly egged every weekend without fail. Bloody annoying trying to get a tenner out and having to wipe half of Dizzy's brain off your wonga.
Anyway regarding those 30 bottles of brown ale I think I may have pissed the bed that night, but I'm not 100% sure :lol:
....not even sure it was worth it really :D
