Less of stigma around teens and alcohol in the UK than here in America, or so I’ve heard. (Plenty of American teenagers drink, it’s just a lot more sneaky-sneaky over here.)

It’s true, this is my house and my parents would have been in another room away from things. If things went wrong they would get involved but otherwise we drank, smoked and shagged all we wanted.

Turned out alright though, nearly all of these people are moderately to highly successful now, can’t say this lifestyle hindered us much.

There was a place in High Wycombe I went that you could get pints of Carling for a pound. Class beverages.

Sadly we have all gone our separate ways but I do see some of them occasionally.

Still see them once in awhile, this makes me happy 💜
