Until a night in Basildon Police station bar (they had a bar on the 5th floor for staff and for some reason me and a few mares, was dirt cheap) when I yaked up purple and haven't touched it since.
Depending on the year there's a good chance I was getting pissed on the top floor of the multi-storey opposite.
Thos would have been about 1999/2000.
I did my fair share of under age drinking in the same multi storey in the mid to late 90s.
There and Roundacre roundabout with the grungers.
Simpler times. Cheap cider and shit weed, all a young man could have asked for.
