Loved the article.
Every statement I agree with, there is absolutely nothing the government can do to stop teen drinking, one way or another teenagers will get drink, either stealing from the drink cabinet to long hours “fishing” for some.

well said i’m eleveen.the reason teens and the rest of the nation drink, in a word is procreation.We are the ugliest race in europe.intelligent,sometimes.witty,always.
but goddamned ugly.
if it were’nt for the beer goggles we’d go the way of the Aztec’s and Inca’s.
The old Catholic sexual repression doesnt help either
so a couple of fat frogs loosen’s the inhibitions.
Teenagers dont get hangovers and have no conscience hence no regrets.thats why we hate them.
There is only one answer for a hangover and regrets,more beer.
It’s a vicious circle.
Problem solved Lenihan now pay up.
I don’t accept cheques.
And dont tell me your broke im sure Sean Haughey can find a few bob in your dad’s Operation fund

We went to the castle grounds with a bottle of vodka and a 12 pack for 7 of us. We used to enjoy the way the midges passed out after they’d bitten us and sucked up our 80 proof blood. Then, only then would we go into town to begin the night out proper. It was a 25 minute brisk walk in a cold Atlantic wind into town but it never seemed worse than a toasty 5 minute amble when we were on the swallie.

The reason teenagers in britain and Ireland drink so much is that we are North-West Europeans and it has ever been thus. I have an idea that I once read our patterns of binge-drinking began with soldiers in the middle-ages but I might be making it up, I don’t know.

Somebody should ask the Lenihan bloke why he drank as a teenager, because you know he did.

We never used to trust anybody that didn’t get larroping at the weekend. You must be a bit of a psycho if you didn’t, we thought.

The lack of proper hangovers is another reason for teen drinking. There’s no payback until you’re 25 and by then you’ve figured out that it’s worth it. Not always, but the sometimes will keep us going.
