What did you do for your 18th/19th? - Page 3

Haly · 31-03-2009, 11:03

Can't remember exactly but I know it wasn't anything special going outwise although always been fortunate to have nice birthdays. Same for my 21st I think.
I know for my 22nd I was living in Stafford, and went out to the student union with Daz and some Uni friends.
23rd I was meant to have a meal with friends and they all dropped out except for one :/ So me and him just went out for a meal by ourselves instead.

Having a big party for my 25th though

My 21st I couldn't afford a party so I gatecrashed the girl from down the road's 21st instead

Other milestone birthdays I can remember are my 30th which I spent drinking cheap brandy with a friend after splitting up with the mother of my second daughter the day before and my 40th which, instead of celebrating, I was cleaning mud pits on the Sedco 704

Luckily, when I got back ashore, my folks were in Aberdeen for the weekend and took me out for a huge steak and got me blootered.

Nothing, just went out. Went to Vegas for my 21st instead!

My 30th was much better than any of the previous ones. Had a great party organised by Lynnie that many people from here turned up to, was an awesome weekend

I'm hoping for similar awesomeness for my 25th

18th - Steak and beer in an Old Orleans in my home city of Oxford. Then clubbing in an awful club, can't remember what happened though!

19th - Uni, Week 1 party! I believe we saw Another Level and the woman that sang 'Sweet Like Chocolate'. WinRar!

I don't remember either.....

Seriously though, just pub for both. then 20th was pub and nightclub with uni friends
21st was grad ball (bad choice)
22nd was at work till 7pm

I'm pretty sure that my 18th was the one where my friends bought a half pint of Guiness in a pint glass and had a shot from every optic added to it and then made me down it. I was ill after that.

My 19th is the one where I think someone decided treble vodka-double aftershock and Redbull combinations were a good idea. I have complete memory loss of 4 hours of that night.

I don't know what your crowd are like but I'd advise not bowing to the peer pressure if something similar is suggested.

Yep 21st here, after a whole nights drinking mine and a friend were handed our "birthday drink" at this point we were already past help, i couldn't even taste anything else over hte guiness and just downed it, but it was lethal

Night mentally ends there for me...
