Stating the obvious

Posted on | June 27, 2008 | 81 Comments

Oh man this made me laugh. There’s a group called MEAS (Mature Enjoyment of Alcohol in Society) who are obviously complete loons. Who wants to enjoy alcohol maturely? It kind of misses the whole point of booze which allows you to behave like a kid again.

Anyway, they’ve warned people of the dangers of drinking too much while on holidays. Which is very kind of them because we all want to go away to the sunshine and sip a glass or two of sherry instead of getting shit-faced and falling asleep on the beach. They’ve obviously given their advice a lot of thought. Like this:

Avoid risky situations, especially after a few drinks, like walking along a deserted cliff path at 2am.

Oooh, cheers for that MEAS. Any others? How about these?

Do not aggravate locals while in Turkey by singing about how gay their football team is.

Avoid climbing the Empire State Building using only sucker pads on your hands and feet.

If you can help it at all don’t try and French kiss poisonous snakes.

Fucking genius, it really is. I mean do people need to be told this? And if they do need to be told not to walk along a deserted cliff path at 2am, the most dangerous time of the night to walk along a deserted cliff path, then aren’t they stupid cunts anyway and if they fall over we can just write it off to natural selection?

Mixing drink with sports, from volleyball to rock climbing, can lead to injuries. So play it safe. Likewise, midnight swimming and drinking is never advisable.

Sorry, but swimming at night when drunk is the best thing ever. If you want to go swimming miles then fair enough, you take your life into your own hands when you lose sight of shore, but splashing about in your jocks in the warm Med waters is something everyone should do no matter how drunk they are. And who the fuck plays volleyball while drunk? Or decides they’ll go rock climbing? All I want is another drink. The inclination to scramble up the sheer face of a mountain has yet to hit me.

Check out this other great tip:

Bars abroad often serve larger measures of spirits than Irish pubs so just two gin and tonic measures could be the same as four or five at home.

OH NO! You mean instead of the scabby lick of gin they give you in your glass here they’ll free pour a very large gin and tonic for you and if you go ‘Awwwwww’ when you consider their measure a bit scabby they’ll pour more in and continue to do so for the duration of the holiday? Well that’s something to be avoided all right.

What fucking world are these MEAS people living in? When I read stuff like this it just makes me want to get drunk, walk along a cliff path, go swimming and all the stuff they say I shouldn’t do. Except rock climbing. That’s just shit.

So drunken holiday stories. Let’s have them.

    Curracloe sometime in the 80s (have to be deliberately vague here). A stolen keg of Carlsberg from the Strand Hotel. Three blokes, three women, mucho skinny dipping (probably after midnight, naughty us), but sadly little in the way of rock climbing or deserted clifftop paths. Few things in life are better than that. As an aside, over in Australia, the wowsers are trying to claim that drinking two beers constitutes binge-drinking. Cunts. Where I come from a binge lasts at least two days.

    My first holiday abroad with mates was a coach trip to Spain with seven other 17 year olds. We drank the coach dry by Paris and had to get the poor driver to stop off and get more beer. On the second night in our static caravan we all got so pissed we decided that the roof of the caravan would act as a rooftop terrace, perfect for entertaining on those balmy Spanish evenings.Only the owner of the caravan park didn’t see it that way (after we kept falling off it after too much San Miguel and the other caravanners kept complaining) and promptly hoofed us out. We spent the rest of the holiday under canvas/sleeping in fields. Still great though.

    I got drunk with this girl I met in a club on holiday. She could barely speak English. I could barely speak. She kept pointing at the toilets so I followed her to the Gent’s toilet where everything was going great until she vomited in the middle of a blowjob. I was up to my balls in hot chunky vomit. Then she vomited all over my shoes.

    midnight swimming and drinking is never advisable.

    It’s a good job I get all my drunken swimming done before midnight then.

    And where is the MEAS warning against drunken blowjobs? Fox could have avoided disaster if only he had been forewarned. Although, let’s face it; who is going to pass up a free blowjob, drunken or otherwise?

    I was still underaged while on a family holiday in a guest house in Kerry. Myself and my older brother were getting on quite well with the young girl who worked behind the bar, where they served diluted cordial drinks in pint glasses for 5p. (It was the 70′s!) We persuaded her to top up all our drinks with vodka, and we spent the whole week completely pissed out of our heads.
    One night we thought it would be a good idea to go horse-riding, regardless of the fact that neither of us had ever been on a horse before in our lives. Instead of getting a horse each, we thought it be a better idea to both get on the same one, so we went for the biggest one in the field.
    As we approached, the horse just looked at us, not moving an inch. Then, just as we got close enough, the fucker swung around and kicked the two of us with his hind legs, sending us flying.
    We spent the rest of the holiday at the bar. Shittest holiday ever!

    Well…(settles in for a long evening of sharing)…

    When I was 16 I had to stand behind a pot-plant in a bar in Torquay for 35 minutes while our home-economics teacher sat on a vodka and lemonade and chatted to the barman, who knew exactly where I was hiding. It was a school trip and we thought she’d gone to bed so we were all down in the bar. I’d gone to the loo and the other’s had scarpered when she came in. I came out of the Ladies and was trapped, frozen for a horrible half minute or so looking at her back in the half-deserted bar. Then I ducked behind the pot-plant and had to peer out like David Bellamy for 35 minutes, completely losing my lovely squidgy vodka bitters buzz and cursing my treacherous bladder.

    Then on another school trip to Inverness (other schools got to go bloody ski-ing – we got Inverness with the chemistry class) we did the usual running about, traffic cones on statues type thing. But the next day we were visiting a distillery when my yellowish-grey hungover pal Dougie had to fall back and go behind a huge still to vomit. I don’t think they had chemistry trips any more after that.

    There are a few more I can remember(ish) from post school-days holidays but the last foreign holiday I was on, I was in Dublin and had to be poured into my Harcourt St hotel room by the lovely fatmammycat and her patient paramour after a jolly evening in the town.

    I was once on a highly-drunken road trip in Latvia (of all places), after pithcing our tents by a lake on the second night we sat around a campfire getting shitfaced when suddenly we could hear what sounded like a kickin’ party from across the lake. By about 1am we were all twisted and very curious so we decided to steal two rowing boats and see what was going on over there. We loaded the boats up with booze and began to make our way across the lake. It didn’t seem very far when we left our campsite, but the lake turned out to be 2 miles wide and by the time we got to the other side, things were wrapping up. Which was probably just as well, considering it was more like a family get-together than an actual party, we weren’t exactly welcome… At around 4am we got back in our boats and began to row back when the thickest fog imaginable descended over the lake, making (already difficult) navigation completely impossible. An argument over which direction we should be rowing broke out with the rower of each boat adamant that their way was the right way. With no-one backing down the two boats were about to head off in different directions but not before one thick cunt said “no, I’m going with them” and tried to step over into our boat. He missed the boat and fell into the lake. That in itself was ok, but when the other 5 people on the boat all leaned over to pull him in, the boat turned over and sank. The other boat was no way big enough to fit us all in, so four of us ended up swimming back to shore alongside the boat. When we did get there, we were half fucking dead with hypothermia and no where near our campsite. It must have been a 3 mile trek through woodland before we finally found the campsite (at 11am) and could warm ourselves up. With cheap latvian vodka, of course.

    I wasn’t on holiday but at a dinner party and, just a little banjaxed, I set fire to the next door neighbour.I’m not sure if it was because he was in the middle of a really boring speech which was showing no signs of ending, he was wearing a cravat or because he was the then-prime minister’s son. Possibly a combination of all three.It made him stop talking, though.

    I was 13 in Blankenberg in belgium on a school football trip. Needess to say all us kids got really drunk we broke into a go-cart compound – literally hundreds of go-carts. At 2am in the morning 20 go-carts were commandeered and we drove them round the streets – that is, until a german police VW campervan thing came blazing after us with sitrens going etc.

    Two teachers picked us up from the cells at about 3.30 that morning. They weren’t happy. Needless to say we were not allowed out after that. Thankfully kids on the top floor of the hotel managed to block the sink the next night and flood the hotel

    I once did a puke on the beach in Rush that was coloured orange by Southern Comfort. It was so jelly-like that it had a wall about 1 cm around the edge. Also, the tide came and went, but the puke stayed in place, like a beached jellyfish.

    Thanks, MB. Was getting confused there…

    In continuation to my previous comment: Later that day we went to a beachside town called Kolka and tried to find somewhere to stay, but to not avail (hotels aren’t that common in rural Latvia). Eventually we found a place that was either a) a boarding school b) a convent or c) a halfway house for delinquent teenage girls. To this day, I still don’t know… Anyway, we managed to persaude the woman in charge of the place to let us stay there that night and it wasn’t long before we were sitting out the back supping on a few cans with the regular habitants of this place. What was meant to be a couple of quiet drinks before heading off to sleep (we were, after all, fucked from all that swimming)turned into another major session after it became apparent that a few of the girls were mad for it. The language barrier was a bit of a problem (they hadn’t got a word of English) but it didn’t stop us from plying them with vokda then bringing them down to the beach for sex at 5am. After that we drove the van into town (insanely drunk, but hey, they fucking do it on our roads) to get more vodka and some cheap red bull rip-off drinks. When we got back the woman in charge of the place we were staying had woken up and realised that 4 of the girls were missing and she went fucking ballistic. She (litetrally) threw our stuff out the windows of the house and told us to “Fuck off, you godless, foreign sons-of-bitches!”…

    …At least that what it sounded like.

    Oh and there was the time my mates and I were staying in a caravan in Wexford. We were about 14/15. We had about three cans of Steiger and we were plastered.

    We found a fully dressed mannequin in one of the neighbours caravans (It was for the camp site play the next night). It was a female dressed in a bright red and yellow dress and a big straw hat.

    So we hid in the bushes at the side of the road sniggering like fuck and nearly getting sick. It was about 11pm.

    Along comes a car from around the bend, out with the mannequin through the air, blam off the bonnet over the roof and onto the ground. Car screeches to a halt, driver opens his door and looks back horrified, mutters something in fear and fucks off!! the bastard.

    So we picked it up and brought it back to the caravan, a bit worse for wear and hanging together.

    The next night, we were all at the camp site play, had totally forgotten about the mannequin until we recognised the guy from the car in the audience. You can imagine his reaction on seeing his victim on stage.

    once went to a party in an apartment near patscathedral. On the way there, we noticed a bottle of gin that some bum/teenager had hidden behind a rock. Complete cunts that we are, we took it (it hadn’t been opened yet). Can’t handle gin at the best of times, and mixing it with various other narcotics ended up with me on all fours on the apartment’s balcony vomiting. Best part was that the floor of the balcony was a steel grate type thing, so i vomited not only on the balcony i was on, but on the three balconies directly below me, in a kind of multi-layered vomit sieve.

    I didn’t know about the driving ban though, interesting. My husband is annoyed on behalf of drivers who cycle – why do those who cycle drunk but have no licence jsut get a fine, while drivers who cycle to the pub so as not to drive drunk get a far harsher penalty purely because they have licences.

    I ‘know this guy who‘ was out looking for mischief with a few mates in a local industrial estate. We, I mean they, found a warehouse that must’ve been used to store beer, because they found loads of 6-packs with one or two bottles missing, presumably broken, lying outside.
    Pissed out of our their heads on 4 & 5-packs, the boys began their wobbly journey home.
    On the way, they found a factory with huge 4′x4′ boxes of rubber stored outside.
    I They thought it would be a good idea to see if it might burn, so they had a go at lighting it. A tiny flame danced on top of one of the boxes. It looked cool, but they got bored with it quickly and went home.
    As they arrived back nearer home, they met up with the father of the naughty monkey boy who had lit the little fire.
    “Jump in the car lads!”, he called, “we’ll go over and see what’s happening.” He was pointing back towards where the boys had come from.
    There was an orange glow in the sky, and loads of thick black smoke.
    The father never understood why all of the boys showed such reluctance to go with him.

    That story makes the MEAS guidelines seem more reasonable.

    Yeah Jo, the father was way out of order there. Imagine driving your car full of pissed 14yr olds towards an orange glow in the sky.

    On our first trip away with the lads in west Cork as a bunch of naive 15yr olds, we got loaded on gone off budweiser. Maybe it wasn’t gone off but bud is always pissy tasting i suppose. We were also very very stoned.
    Anyway while walking across a golf course we thought a ghost was following us, so naturally we all took off running, scared stupid.
    Turned out it was a local girl interested in the city lads. She was wearing a long flowing coat in the middle of a warm summer nite which took a ghostly appearance after the booze.
    We threw stones at her to make her go away…
    Maybe its funnier in my head.
    Oh and one of the lads burned down a hotel at the golf course

    at a stag in hamburg.9 in the morning after a day and night of heavy boozing and serious substance abuse we went to a family concert at this big warehouse type thing by the river.saw a sandpit outside and we decided to commandeer it.the boys bought buckets and spades and were making castles and stuff.they even bought some plants to make it look nice.couldn’t figure out why the locals were staring and pointing so much.turned out it was for dogs to “do their business in”.then some german goths walked by and got jealous of our nicely designed shit pit and started a fight over it.
    drugs are fun.

    Mr. M took me to San Francisco during the LA riots in ’92 as a result of the Rodney King verdict. We drank in dodgy pubs in the Mission District with a friend of mine who was living there and talked about which posh boutiques we were going to loot. There were riots in SF as well, so the mayor issued a curfew at dusk. I said fuck that, we’re on holiday, so we wandered the empty streets getting shitfaced and checking out the damage.
    Fun times.
