Drinking
is my most expensive vice. Drinking all of Friday & Saturday can easily approach £200.

Apart from that, my driving lessons are £108 a month, the theory test was £30 odd, fuck knows what the test will cost, and I don't even own a car yet. That is going to be one expensive motherfucker - the actual car, insurance for a young male, road tax, MOT's, maintenance, fuel oh jesus christ I'm going to be poor forever.

snap
i've been having theory classes for about 3 months (after having booked the course 4 months before that), so I only have five months left to complete the theory test, take enough practical lessons, and the exam.

And what do you base this libelous comment on?

flimsy evidence

Theory classes?
I just got a DVD and crammed in the week leading up to the test. Passed easily!

You drink on a Friday and Saturday what I earn in a week.

I have to qualify
that I don't do anything like that anymore unless it's a very special occasion.

But last year I spent a ludicrous amount on drink, really really stupid. I'm not even well off! It was essentially my disposable income in it's entirity.

In fact these days I like to get shitfaced probably once a month at a cost of about £70.

I used to spend £50-£70 on a night out
but £70 put into context at an average of £3 per drink that's 22 drinks and change left over for a kebab, just sounds plain dangerous to me.

it does sound too much
I mean I'm a pretty heavy drinker, if on a proper lash I'll probably have eighteen drinks or so, perhaps more, but I'd spend max £35. Though that will generally include drinks had at pre-lash, which are mixed from my own bottles (still less expensive)

I can't confirm how much I drink
quite a lot of course, but I get the feeling I give out more drinks than I'm receiving back. Anyway I'm dealing with the health aspects but the money hurts just as much.

that is why I have given up drinking large amounts
in favour of drinking small amounts and smoking loads of spliffs
