Last week was excessive though, if I do say so myself. I finished work at 5, went to a mates house, had 5 rum and fantas, 2 shots, 2 bottles of Heineken, left the house at 8 feeling fairly merry, had 6 pints of Heineken, then had a bit of an after session in mine and had 3 bottles of Hein-o-mite, and a can; we stayed up until around 5 talking waffle.

That sounds like an insane amount of alcohol to me. Especially now I'm 42...

but where it really goes wrong is all the Heineken.

This is only half a joke, as I am Dutch and a bit of a beer snob and I think Hnkn is crappy beer with hardly any taste. I believe that it basically has become most wellknown and widespread around the world ( like a virus ) due to its marketing budget/campaign.

Oh and Happy birthday! ;<)
