Strewth! I thought the boozing student was a myth. My generation binged on coffee instead, being much better suited to our budgets. Beer, or alcohol of any kind, was a very-occasional indulgence!
I was a student in the late 80's. Boy did we drink. Not that I'm proud of it particularly. The height of hedonism was that the Law Society Christmas disco that was held from midday to 5pm in a proper nightclub on a weekday. Stumbling out of a nightclub wrecked and boogied at just as people were leaving off work and doing their xmas shopping was a weird experience. We didn't just drink though, one day we spent 8 hours in our student lounge, drinking tea, eating pasties, doing crosswords, etc.
