No. I was just pointing out that kids these days are massive.
I still get asked for I.D all the time myself and I'm 34, so they'd have no chance.
Do they manage to get served and into pubs and places like that?

The building is still there mate, student digs isn't it? Think it was a HiFi shop for a while...The Penny Black in town when I was about 16
Been knocked down years and not actually sure what is there nowadays.
That's part of the fun, if you can't all get in to the good places you just go to some shitholes where they aren't bothered and will happily overcharge you for shit beer.
You have to try to see if you can, then give it the act that you have left your ID at home, back in the day people used to use other people's ID and get in even if they didn't really look like them.
I meant to put closed down. :bag:The building is still there mate, student digs isn't it? Think it was a HiFi shop for a while...
Funny really, think there are as many places where I've drank that are now closed down as there are open, in the space of 18 years.

That was my first town pub also aged 14 (a week after the Binley Oak).The Alhambra was a great City pub. Loved it in there pre game and after away games, (shut after home games, this was before all day opening).
I’m so old I’ve forgotten it’s name. A dodgy establishment at the front of the arcade which happily served 15 year olds with no ID

Every Xmas Eve for years a load of us met in the Alhambra, then on to a pub crawl in the town centre. Great crack !The Alhambra was a great City pub. Loved it in there pre game and after away games, (shut after home games, this was before all day opening).
Can't remember now but I was 13 or 14, I started shaving when I was 11 so never got asked for ID.
Obviously shaved upwards from the start!
Looking back our city centre was lively and loads of places to go. Now there's not a lot.
Funnily enough, so could my sister.Haha I could grow a full beard at 14.
Probably City arms at 14, ikon/diva at 14 was my first club I got into (1st day of Euro 2004 Greece beat Portugal) I drank absinthe in the afternoon for my one and only time! Memories!!
I was just one of the faces in the crowd in my year at school the 2 'popular' girls of my year were in there with some blokes, saw me told loads in my year and the following Monday for one day only I was the cool kid of the year.
you'll always be one of the cool kids to me I_S_S_S!!
Haha cheers mate, I've learnt life's definitely a marathon not a sprint in terms of popularity/being remembered etc....legend at 14 doesn't count for much years down the line!
