well madras, good question, most nights i'd be with my friends though from 19 years i always seemed to have a girlfriend to spend time with aswell. with the lads we'd play football or go to the local or meet in someones house to listen to music and have a banter.

i think i qualify, as an old fart.

 

 

from about 19-23, lodged at various mates houses, and we pissed it up and pissed about 7 nights a week,  the young ones rings a bell, never went anywhere near a computer.

at23 moved back with the rents and the gimp, and sisters, for about a year,... spent half the week on the piss the other half the week on gimps sega.

Then moved out, got a lass up the stick, and her i am.

 

 

edit, forgot, raked around in various shitty old cars many a night, and shagged in the back.

the joy of video porn was when you borrowed a tape off a mate chances are it wasn't rewound and as soon as you put it on you'd know where he "finished" and what got him going. with one of my mates it was all lezzers.

I can remember seeing it on Blue Peter - Simon Groom was practically jizzing in his Farah sta-pressed trousers about it. Oh yes...the early 1980s when it still seemed a viable prospect we'd be living on the moon by 2001.

Pre 18.

For me it was mainly spent planning how I could get hold of booze (or drugs - mainly skunk) for the weekend.  I would go out on Friday to various friends and not go home till Sunday.

Post 18.

Out drinking, beer was approx 50p a pint so a fiver went a long way!!

Most week nights I would go to the gym straight from work, pump some iron and then bake on the sunbed, have a sauna then be so knackered when I got home that I would be in bed by 10pm.  Had an obsession with getting 9 hours sleep a night!!

 

I was really into music, still am, and I would listen to records 12" LP's on my record player most nights when I was at home.  I was in a couple of bands so at least one night a week was practice at some hall or someones house, if their folks were out.

 

I had a Sega Megadrive, that became an obsession - playing on Sonic the Hedgehog for hours at a time!  I was pretty busy now that I have the chance to reflect.  Still pretty busy now to be honest.

 

Internet only plays a small part in my life now, I go on every day but, maybe only for an hour or two in total.  More of a quick look in then off to do something else.

 

By the way, I am 43 now, proper old fart in some of your eyes no doubt!!  Feel fine thoug, feel the same as I did when I was 21 - just look worse!
