No, as in got in a motor knowingly a bit wonky, never ! Now, like everyone I’ve been on weekend benders, finished up Sunday evening and got in a motor 6am Monday morning so I suppose technically it’s still in your system and that counts. But I packed up drinking altogether at 24 and that was totally because I had a home, a business, a mrs and had to be right every single day from very early to very late…..that and drink don’t make good bed fellows and if you add loosing your license that would have been a disaster. But I was always mindful of times between partying and when I had to get in a motor even when I was young and didn’t give two fucks about anything. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But I suppose having been a non drinker for so long I don’t understand “having to have a beer” My mother in law does it, she will be “oh I can just have one G&T or glass of wine” ?…..why would you even bother is my way of looking at it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnipper 6,754 Posted Saturday at 11:54 Report Share Posted Saturday at 11:54 I could never see the point in just drinking 1 beer so I don't bother. Alcohol is for getting pissed not hydrated. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've done some dumb shit in my time , and stood in the dock in front of plenty of magistrates and judges , but the thought of standing in the dock in front of some kids parents , that I'd killed while I was drunk , always frightened the shit out of me. I won't get behind the wheel for 24 hours after I've had a drink , yes that's over the top , but it's better than asking myself if it was my fault if the worst ever happened. 3 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
