Late afternoon, I was walking home from work and I bumped into a friend of mine. We stood chatting for a couple of minutes, then he suggested we go for a pint. I was dubious about whether I wanted to, since I was looking forward to a quiet evening in, then he came out with the classic line "go on, just for one!"
How many times have you gone for "just the one" drink, only for it to turn into several, after which things start getting very hazy and then the following morning you wake up and think, oh shit, I really don't feel very good?
Guess what?
One solitary pint of beer later,
Like I said, sometimes miracles do happen.

Hi Trews
Maturity - one day, it might even happen to me.

Pants
Trousers : What did you have to drink at home we ask........
Because there was me thinking you were getting better all the time.
Just popping in to say Merry Christmas. Take care honey and have a good one.
Oh and I think that you're super mature :)

A 'Trousers Carole', no less.
Sounds good lav, hope it turns out as good as it sounds :)
pants, I would say the same for myself: the fact that going for one pint and no more was noteworthy enough to blog about should tell you plenty really! I can do "not drinking at all" easily, but usually if I'm going to have a drink it won't be just the one.
Nice try zola, but back home I had a cup or two of green tea, and a pint of tap water. Not exactly the last days of Rome round these parts, or at least not on the night in question. Or for that matter, not anytime since the last days of Rome.
caroline thanks for popping by, and a very Merry Christmas to you too! I shall deftly sidestep the "mature" comment :)...
...and completely and utterly fail to respond to merkin with anything quite so witty as his own comment - nice one!
Remarkable restraint Mr Trousers - and I KNOW how much you can drink!
Damn right Queen Vixen!
no bottle of red then to finish the night with?
THis new mature Trousers is surely the kind of role model that new labor seeks for the younger generation.
Go for it Trousers you have an opportunity window opened for you here.
Good pensions, nowt much work and a whole lot of party-time going on.
Votes for Trousers.
Right just the one then.....
Just one botle of beer
Just one bottle of red wine
Just one bottle of champagne....
Oh go on then I'll have another couple of glasses to keep you lot company.
But apart from that I won't have another drink!!!

Oh bloody hell, rumbled by lady in red and pixie!
