What's your relationship with alcohol?

[seafoid]

What ever happened to nightclubs in this country? Seems to me that the nightclubs I frequented when I was younger are all shutdown now. Where do the youngsters go these days?

It's the same across the UK too.

Rates, insurance and casual staffing issues are being put forward as the red flags. Pretty much the same as the rest of the hospitality industry. It's probably worse for nightclubs though as unless there's students about, they're leaving a warehouse size building vacant for 4-5 days a week.

Other theories surround changing habits - horny people can meet on Tindr etc, drink driving and availability of transport when there's 1000 people exiting a building at once, obviously an issue.

Probably linked to pubs and their mi-adh too. Plus you don't need to go to a club any more to hear absolute bangers.

Alcohol and sugar have started to wear the enamel on my teeth so I have no choice but to quit alcohol unless I want to have no teeth in 10 years. I developed an enjoyment for binge drinking over the past few years, wine is a good cheap drink for binge drinking. When I say binge drinking I mean 4 or 5 beers or 1 bottle of wine, that was enough to get me drunk.

Just get yourself to Turkey for the Hollywood smile! Real teeth are overrated

I love a drink, even though I'm not a heavy drinker. Having a drink means I'm either unwinding with the ball and chain or socialising with friends/family.

Tonight - working late and in the door after 9, dying of thirst. Ice cold bottle of cider just hit the spot. Guzzled inside a minute.

I'll have a bit of a knees up later this month but apart from that I don't know when I'll have another drink.

Red. Sometimes white.

I'd be white, sometimes red. Then single malt Islay.

Red. Sometimes white.

Red wine in the main ... only white when I've ran out!

Argentines Malbec
Spanish Rioja (Tempranillo)
Portuguese wines I've enjoyed recently, currently having a Douro Doc Alma da Vinha.. nice

As for whiskey, my mate is a proper whiskey connoisseur, he's hundreds of bottles all various types and we generally have a tipple or two if I call round, but for me a single malt Glenlivet hits the spot for price and taste/flavour

Been told by a few people to steer clear of cider. Easy done for me, as not a big lover of it. But had heard it's one of the worst drinks for your health. Not sure if it was scaremongering but haven't had any in years. First ever drink was a pint of snake bite.

Priorat. White wine is largely for complete fannies.

Nikka from the barrel.

Brought a bottle of Pinot noir back home from the Buena Vista winery in Sonoma, California. Maybe because of the effort, it sticks in my head as being the nicest red I'd ever had. I like the lighter French Fleuries/Beaujolais too. For whites, and sticking with France, I like Chablis, Pouilly Fuisse, Sancerre, all dry whites.

I'm avoiding alcohol for a few weeks, but a girls' ski trip at the end of the month will involve a fair bit of Côtes du Rhône.

Tequila slammers with Bill Gates.

[Jell 0 Biafra]

Don't care for wine at all.  Weareros speaks for me on Whiskey/whisky.

For a cheap but decent drink, I go for Teacher's scotch.
