i am sure there will be dribs and drabs of stuff to come, but there's one more thing i do actually love about glasgow.
the underground, for its drinking game and its tickets.
for the uninitiated, there are two variations of teh clockwork orange drinking game. version one, the more 'sensible' of the two, and also the leats likely to get tyou hammered, is where you buy a day pass and grab some mates. get on the train after having met in a pub near to a station. drink one round. get on the train. go one stop. drink another round. keep doing this until the train gets back to the stop you started at. go home, and using the newly acquired underground tickets for roach, roll up and smoke up.
version two, is far cheaper in both senses of the word, but also much more fun. go to an alcohol shop, the offie. get yourself the usual amount of drink you would have for an evenings drunken debauchery. head to the nearest station. board the train, and then commence your drinking. the game is made harder by the illegality of public drinking in our fair town, which requires stealth mode to be activated at this point.(that, and also not wanting a fight or too many upset fellow passengers to ruin a nice evening).
as soon as you have finished all the bevvy, (the last to finish may be given a penalty) leave the train at the next stop and try to find your way to a pub. this part is the fun part, especially if your journey takes you to somewhere you have never been. (i have never been to kining park before now, for example)
during both games you should also try to befriend and recruit as many fellow passengers as you can, hopefully swelling your numbers to fill your own carriage.
perhaps an idea for a summit?
but then there are meek and sensitive souls who may not be comfortable with such rambunctious behaviour...
i also really like the glass bottles Barr make. |
