London Stag Do - Suggestions Please

[legalbeagle]

Book a private room in one of those karaoke type bars where they bring you drinks all night and get drunk enough to think it's a good plan to sing "the boys are back in town" loudly in public?

[HonaloochieB]

And follow it up with Sid Vicious' version/demolition of the execrable My Way.

[Annasfield]

Go on a RIB!!!

[legalbeagle]

With a finale of Iron Maiden's "die with your boots on".

Sounds like stag night fodder to me - Circle Line, Monopoly, or Pub Golf in the area of your choice...

anything that involves going on a crawl just means you spend more time walking and less time having a good night, plus the group will no doubt become disjointed, and you waste loads of time getting in/served/drinking up etc. anything with instructions is lame, anything too contrived is even lamer.

Pick a good busy place that you can stay in for a while to get hammered and have a laugh, then a good club where you have sorted out entry previously and where it goes a bit wrong in a good way, then those interested go on to wherever.

Sorry guys. I know me and the Lush have had our differences but this time I have to agree with his wisdom. Drinking games are foolish and what American frat groups get up to whilst shrieking "Moose, Moose" at the top of their nasal voices. Thoroughly un-British.

Drinking games often ruin a well planned night out because someone usually drinks too much Asda Vodka and ends up needing an ambulance.

I learnt my lesson when staying in building/demolition contractor digs and we'd while away a rainy saturday afternoon up north by playing 'ring of fire' and smoking skunk through a Vodka bong. Not nice.

[Jah Lush]

Thank you Mr Wolf. Idiots who think they can drink a bottle of vodka/whiskey or whatever in under an hour in some stupid life threatening drinking game deserves what they get, either their stomaches pumped out or death. Drinking games are for arseholes.

Drink sensibly not until you're senseless.

My bro had a great stag do but then we are all real ale fans. We did a brewery tour at the Badger Brewery in Dorset then did a pub crawl around different pubs around dorcester selling particular real ales. Used the Real Ale guide and hired a 7 seater taxi for the evening. Ended up at the last pub playing darts. We went for the top beers and had a great but not too drunk evening.

The same format could be used in london as there are several breweries still and many many pubs selling any number of real ales.

Of course it will not work if you don't like real ale

Un-British?! How dare you, sir. I take issue, as does every University rugby player in Britain, past and present...

...the walking:drinking ratio point is a good one, though.

[HonaloochieB]

Oh arse.

I was going to suggest the Withnail & I drinking game. I even got a case of lighter fluid in, special like.

But now I see that Jah 'Adam's Ale' Lush and BigSensibleWolf have put the bok on it.

Any suggestions as to what I might do with 24 cans of lighter fluid will be gratefully received.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Lighter fluid is simply wonderful for removing sticky price labels. Get thee to a cheap emporium and buy 1,600 small items.

[legalbeagle]

Unchastened, I too was going to suggest the Withnail game, though I have always understood it to be more of a "consuming" game, rather than just a drinking game. Does take a bit of organising, but more fun I think. (Don't forget the tea and cake ordered from Miss Blennerhassett, and Green & Blue would be only to happy to source you the finest wines available to humanity).

HB - there are many uses for lighter fluid: removing rust, getting gum out of hair, removing crayon marks, taking out cooking oil stains from clothes....the list is endless. Such ignorance can only mean you have forgotten to renew your subscription to Readers Digest, the bible of such handy hints. Let that be a lesson to you.

My boyfriend was on a Stag Do in London last night and they went Urban Golfing:

as an alternative from pub crawls and drinking games, but I think that's what's on the agenda today though...
