It very much is, and don't worry, you can't judge 14-year-old me any harder than I can judge 14-year-old me.

Choices were made.

[flippin_peachy]

Oh I don't know about that.
You poor Americans, at least when I was sneaking drinks at a young age they were good and proper lagers.

[theshadowed]

Oh, trust me, there is a lot to judge from back then.

We drank what we could get our hands on, and by hands-on, we couldn't raid my dad's liquor cabinet or fridge.

There were some good times, even if it was shit beer.

[flippin_peachy]

Good times with good mates?

[theshadowed]

When I was 14? 70% good times, good friends. The other 30 questionable choices that make adult me think, how the hell am I alive? But I think that's a lot of people.

These days, good times, good friends.

What about you? Mister, I've always had good taste in alcohol.

[flippin_peachy]

Well it's good to hear that percentage has gone up.

Mister? Oh you don't have to call me that, Alfred is fine.
And I'm always a fan of a good pint of lager, maybe a Guinness in the winter, and a glass of whiskey served neat.

[theshadowed]

It is.

Oh, probably charming with dad jokes?

Alright, Alfred. Anyone ever call you Alfie, or is that one of those "not if they want to live,' style nicknames? Only a few people actually call me Isadora.

I can get behind that. Guinness isn't a drink; it's lunch.

[flippin_peachy]

Only my close mates call me Alfie.
What do you prefer to be called if not Isadora?

It's both which is what makes it so good.

[theshadowed]

People have called me Izzy for so long Isadora feels weird; closer people just call me Iz.

Only my parents and some of the teachers at the school called me Isadora.

It really is; I haven't gone out drinking for a while.

[flippin_peachy]

Izzy it is then.

Been too busy? Or had a bad experience?

[theshadowed]

Just busy. Day job, doing some stuff for my old school, side jobs.

Have some downtime for the next week or two.

[flippin_peachy]

Downtime is good, give me a ring then and we'll see if our schedules line up for drinks.

[theshadowed]

Sounds like a plan, I'm looking forward to it.
