1)How old when you first got drunk?
2)How old when you first bought a drink?
3)How old when you went to see an 18 cert film?
4)How old when you lost your virginity? (and if you haven't, say so because there is nothing wrong with that at all)
I'll go first:
1) I was 8. I used to hassle my mum for a glass of beer when they had one. She bought me a can of Special Brew and said if I drank it all, I could drink as often as I wanted.
I did drink it, and was so ill I didn't touch drink again until I was 14.
2) 16
3) 17 - Total Recall
4) 18
1)How old when you first got drunk?
I can't remember, I was too drunk.
2)How old when you first bought a drink?
8 years old. I think it was a can of Dr. Pepper.
3)How old when you went to see an 18 cert film?
14 years old. Watched Dawn of the Living Dead round a mates house on video after school. It had no adverse affects on me at all except for my penchant for cannibalism and shooting people.
4)How old when you lost your virginity?
11 years old when I got my first Atari console and played Pong. Since then I've led a very active and healthy gaming life.
I think I was about 13. My parents had a party and me and some mates smuggled a bottle of wine out into the garden to drink. I was told by my mum that at the end of the evening I was laying on the bathroom floor saying "never again" over and over. My parents have never really had a problem with me drinking when I was younger, as long as they were about.
2)How old when you first bought a drink?
In a pub or from a shop? From a shop I was probably 16, I bought it for a mates younger brother. In a pub I was just under 17.
3)How old when you went to see an 18 cert film?
17
4)How old when you lost your virginity? (and if you haven't, say so because there is nothing wrong with that at all)
17
2) Never bought - Always got my elder mates to do it!
3) 12 - Terminator (No1 was an 18 I think)
4) Not yet!

3)How old when you went to see an 18 cert film?- 12
4)How old when you lost your virginity? -N/A(not accomplished))
In my day you could not go in a pub if you were under 18. I was breathalised on my 18th birthday for pulling out in front of a Police car, while I was leaving the first pub on my birthday pub crawl. Fortunately I was only drinking half a pint of lager in each pub.
The first time I ever went in a pub I was 13 years old. They served with cider, possibly because I was wearing army uniform and carrying a Sten gun (yes a real one). Or maybe they felt sorry for me for camping in the wood when it was snowing!
How did you get in to the cinema? Smuggled in a bag or something?
