"2 Questions..."

1) How old were you when you first got served alcohol?

2) How old were you when you last got asked for ID?

For me:

1) 16

2) 20

none to both of them!

Umm,
prolly 15 or 16.

Impressively enough, last week, aged 26. Not that I'm babyfaced or anything - my hairline's heading south, and most people who guess at my age reckon I'm the wrong side of 30. But these crazy yanks will ID anyone who looks under 40, just to be on the safe side. And no, that's not an exaggeration, that's policy in a lot of shops here. I was totally confused first time they asked me if I was over 21 - I replied, "yeah, but thanks for not being sure"

don't drink

won't drink

At 29 I often get asked if im a taxi driver here to pick someone up ..sniff

Go Snuggly, go Snuggly, it's yo birthday!

1. 15 (I don't think I looked old enough, but obviously the bouncers/bar staff did)

2. 18! Curse them. It was after college, I was in jeans, t-shirt and had my bag with me. Was in Wetherspoons, got asked for ID by the guy who's served me there about five times (we even talk to him sometimes) I whipped out my student ID "No good, they're too easy to forge" Whipped out my BIRTH CERTIFICATE for Jimmy's sake (which I keep with me for job interviews) still no good. My adult travel pass also failed to convince him. So we stormed out, went to the pub next door and had a few pints.

That was a few months ago, it's quite rare but it does happen. Soon as I turned 18, I started getting asked for ID... it's crazy.

1) 16

2) Last friday. :( Everyone gets asked for it though, I still managed to get in.. somehow?!

1) 16

2) Ain't been asked yet
