    a few pints 2-4
    a locha pints 5-8
    a feed of pints 8-11
    a "raft" of pints 11 to oblivion

    a raft of pints is saved for occasions like weddings or winning the championship with the club

    "were ya out last night lad?"
    .... "was I out??!! sure we won the junior yesterday, jeasus we had a fkn raft of pints after, im dying, cmon sure we will have the breakfast anyway"


    thats the breakdown in Cavan anyway

    When my wife asks me as how much I plan to drink, I start crying and say "till I love you again" and the run out of the room.

    This usually buys me a few days peace and quiet.

    Depends on how thirsty you are.

    More than a skinful, but a lot less than a metric shítload of pints.

    There's a few things that need to be right for a feed of pints;
    1. The venue - one pub only, proper old style pub, no fancy food, not background music, waiter service or staff in uniforms. No beer garden. Dark, dank and dingy.
    2. Food - nothing till at least 10 & then nothing that requires leaving the pub so crisps, toasted sambo or if your lucky the pub will send around a few baskets of deep fried stuff. Gorge on it.
    3. Timing - You'd want to be starting around 4, anything earlier than that requires a dinner of some kind & rule 2 rules that out.
    4. Rounds - decent number of people are required to buy rounds. I'd say 5-8. All on the black stuff, although its acceptable to have one or two young lads on cider or bottles for entertainments sake.
    5 - Topics - 'state of yer wan', 'd'ya remember back in 198...' 'me hole' 'your ma' 'double or quits'
    6 - No doing the absolute dog on it - triple voddies/shots/ etc are all off the table
    7. nightclubs etc no go.
    8. Respectable end to the night - anything in or about midnight, a slow 'right lads, sure I'll call it an evening' - a nonchalant ordinary, everyday feel to it.

    Now...anyone coming for a few scoops?

    I'll go. Not pregnant any more so dying for a feed of drink.

    Roughly around 35 pints.

    Sometimes I go a bit mad and have 2 feeds of pints though.

    I once used this rule for determining the age at which it's allowed to go out with a girl. However, I forgot to add the 7, so needless to say I'm now locked up in prison.
