I managed about 7 pints (perhaps more) when over the wall one Saturday. On the way back one schoolmate (now retired Commodore RN) was rolling about in the middle of the road as high as a kit. Me, the model of sobriety.
An hour or so later the situation was reversed with him apparently sober and me caught practicing R/T distress procedure on the GWT with my housemaster looking on. "I'm afraid I am a little drunk, Sir". "It doesn't take much intellectual thought to work that one out matey!"
(I don't think the Chief's description of fine dining at H&W recommends itself for entry in Michelin's Guide although it might make to the AA's).
