    I refuse to answer that question under the grounds that it might indict me now or at a later stage.
    Won't look good on my record as I run for presidency of a mini-state of a Federation of Europe in the future.

    Yes. Only in my late teens.

    Apparently it is legal to underage drink if your over 16.

    Yep, Smithwicks and whiskey were the first drinks I ever had. As disgusting then as they are now.

    You drank underage and bought it yourself

    Nowadays one drinks underage and someone overage buys it for them !

    Yes, I was 15. You never got hangovers at that age, it was great. The difficult part was trying to appear sober when you got home. God knows how my mum and dad never clocked that I was steaming every weekend and probably reeking of cider.

    They knew. Parents always know. They did it themselves sure.

    Just letting younguns see the difference between scumbag underage drinking and regular underage drinking.

    I started on the guy in the mirror last night and punched him. Woke up this morning with cuts on my hand and a black eye...

    I did it and parents gave me the drink, as long as we did it in the house so they could keep half an eye on us.

    That's a reflection on today's underage drinkers.

    I drank when I was underage, to this day the smell of cider sickens me.

    Nope, was never interested in drinking. Wasn't a huge drinker until this year. Still only once a week or so. Just a choice I suppose.

    There used to be some strange rules about being able to have a drink at 15(?) if you were getting a meal and with the parent/ guardian. Not sure if those laws still exist or not though.

    Yes, started at about 15. If you want to be cool I would suggest drinking son. Dont drink on an empty stomach and dont drink too fast.

    There's no legal drinking age in Ireland as such, AFAIK.

    People can drink in a private residence at any age.
