At 18 you can vote, join the military, buy cigarettes, buy porn and buy lottery tickets but you can't buy beer. I've lived here my whole life and I can't get my head around it either.

Is UK seriously moving in the same direction? That's crazy.

As far as I'm aware theres nothing in place but there has been talk of it. I dont think it will happen just yet but it seems every other week the news is just full of binge drinking and alcohol related deaths figures and statistics as we are told that we are getting worse all the time so I wouldn't be surprised to see something in place eventually.

And oddly enough the only table my home town (people tell me Sunderland is a city now but I will continue to call it a town. Those people I dont think have been to Sunderland) is top of is the binge drinking table. Oh and the teenage pregnancy table as well I believe.

It really is a beautiful place. You should visit.

Well your description does make it sounds pretty enticing.

Hah. Oh yeah, it may have been made a city in 1992 but its still a ****hole. Anyway, i think we have dragged this thread as far off topic as it will go now.

I will start a thread on this recent subject. Sounds like it could have some legs.

I have about 200 photos on Facebook probably...about 150 I have a beer in my hand. Im not showing off that I have a beer. It comes down to basically the only time Im ever in pictures is at parties. I dont just take pictures. I imagine the majority of the people here are in the same situation as well.
