I think it's supposed to be like the Canadian Senate...nothing of substance is ever discussed, we all sit around drinking beer and scotch (not together), then go back home and wonder why we still have a headache.

...yes, I did/do And you did have the idea even before I told you about mine and elanor's convo Seems like the Holy Spirit is moving amongst CF politics posters!

But I'm talking about the Canadian Senate. In Canada, the drinking age is either 18 or 19 depending on the province you're in. Not to mention that in Europe there's no age limit for drinking; kids gets wine at supper. So you're fine.
