(I'm shit at drinking so never really did any heavy duty efforts at it. It makes me boring and I'd rather be sober and making an arse of myself on the dance floor).

Normally Stones or Wards but the local was Teltleys boy that could clear you out. In town it was Newcastle Brown in a bottle in the wap (rock/bikers pub under a posh hotel) or in a can in rebels (rockers bar above some shops Burtons I think) Later in Weston-Super-Mare whilst doing my RAF trade training it was scrumpy in the Legion before clubbing
