    In England you can be:

    In a bar at 14.
    Allowed someone to buy you a drink at 16.
    Allowed to purchase alcohol and consume it at 18.

    What is the average age when you're allowed to smoke? Here it is 16.

    So someone could buy you a drink at 16 but you can't consume it until you're 18? :lol:
    2 years with it in your hand without drinking it?That's weird. :eek: :lol:

    Doh, in Finland it's 18. And in Sweden I think it's 20.
    And you cannot buy anything stronger than 22% until you turn 20.


    I was so sad in a store today. You know that there's all kinds of team stuff now that Football World Cup is this year. And of course I drag my ass to men's clothes or sports section. And they had these pretty orange jackets where read "Netherlands" on the back and the logo in front. And smallest size was L :( Of course some stupid France and Brazil had smaller sizes.
    Then there was t-shirts, England and Holland but didn't look so cool :( And those weren't even so expensive.

    I live in right near the canadian border and all the teenagers (who have turned 19) go to canada to drink instead of having to wait till they turn 21.

    I've forgotten to say that 16-18,depends of the local legislation,is the age to buy alcohol,nothing about consuming it.

    And,hey,teens in this forum:don't drink alcohol,getting drunk is not funny;don't smoke,lung cancer is not funny either and don't take drugs,detox in the Betty Ford is too expensive. ;)

    I may have told this before, but I remember I went to pub a couple of years ago with a friend who was 20 at the time, and is taller than me (she's about 5' 10").

    She went to the bar to order drinks. When she came back, I was shocked when she told me she was asked for ID :lol: :lol: I think she was a bit insulted :lol: (legal drinking age here is 18).

    I went to a pub last night, because my bro forgot his phone in the car and I said I'll bring it to him. I thought "I think I get in" and left my wallet in the car and holding carkeys, the man looks at me and says "hey,you have your ID?" I look at him few secs, scratch my face with carkeys and say "uh, in the car" and turn around, get my wallet :lol:

    My sister laughed so hard and said she should have yelled to man so he'd let me in. I'm not a reg there so he didn't recognise me :lol:
