Drunk Parents
Watching the old man swing home from the pub and start arguing with Newsnight can be either funny, slightly unnerving or just plain terrifying. Tell us about daft things parents have done while they've been in their cups.

Christmas
Christmas in the seventies. Before the arrival of sensible my parents would go out hard on Christmas eve. Well I say parents but mater was too smart to have a Christmas day hangover. Not so pater.
Christmas is at his sister's and the morning breaks to find him grey-green, clammy and shaky. On the credit side he did hold it together for the morning pleasantries and gift exchanges without throwing up. It all fell apart though, when he slumped insensible and face first into his Christmas dinner.
We never got invited back.
