islaydarkblue Posted 17 May 2018 Report Share Posted 17 May 2018 I had a bad experience from drinking Vodka and lemonade at my stag night in Arbroath prior to my wedding in 1980. Since that ill fated night I have drunk OVD and lemonade with no further bad experiences. I am sure that other posters have had similar bad experiences a result of having one drink too many and it will be interesting to read their disasters. I would rather have a cup of coffee than an OVD and lemonade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mev Posted 17 May 2018 Report Share Posted 17 May 2018 Yes. £10.00 for a pint of lager and a Pimm's for the wife in a pub in London. Needless to say we left after one drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dblair Posted 17 May 2018 Report Share Posted 17 May 2018 Yup, many! Mostly not appropriate for on here. My favourite was when my wife thought she was being good to me and bought me a box of beer for when I got back home from being offshore for 3 weeks.

SM1893 Posted 17 May 2018 Report Share Posted 17 May 2018 Xmas eve 2016. In the Fort for a wee beverage (full blown night out) and ended up eating the limes from my multiple bottles of Desperado’s. This was hard skin included. Lets just say not much of my Christmas dinner was eaten. That was a hangover that still hurts almost 2 years on.

The simple answer is that I was working in the Bank of Scotland Brothock Bridge Arbroath branch and I decided to have my stag night in Arbroath.

The important thing is that hopefully you have learnt from your mistake and that you now remove the hard skin from a lime before you eat it.

Douglas, Douglas, Douglas! You really should be a politician! What I was really wanting to know was the story behind your vodka fueled "ill fated" night in Arbroath. Did you try climb the cliffs? Try commandeer a boat? Or did you simply end up spewing your ringer outside ballys!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did you simply end up spewing your ringer outside ballys!? Hi dblair, I would certainly make a better politician than some we have at present in Scotland. I was asked to bring in some old clothes and a couple of members of staff spent some time getting my clothes covered in tinsel etc as they wanted me dressed up for my stag night. When we left the branch flour was thrown over me and I was paraded across the dual carriageway to a pub at the foot of Keptie Street where a member of the Bank staff worked part time at night serving behind the bar. My brother also came as he was supposed to be making sure I was OK. Unknown to me the staff member who was also the barmaid pulled the optic measure off the vodka bottle and poured my vodka “Spanish style”. After a couple of hours I spent the rest of the evening in the pub toilet being sick. Another member of staff who was going on holiday to Spain was also the worse for wear but still managed her holiday. My brother eventually phoned my father to drive to Arbroath to collect us and take us back to Dundee. Amazingly I was not sick during the car journey. My wife and I had previously bought a flat in Lochee Road and we went to the flat. I remember that it was raining and I managed to again spew up and I watched my spewings float down the gutter in Lochee Road. That is what happened and thank goodness I now drink OVD, only occasionally. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
