Proms suck... I grew up in a small town, we had ours in the local RSL club (ex-servicemen's clubs.... love them now but death for young kids looking to party) and a few of us were still 17 so we had issues getting drinks. Partly because we were only 17 but mostly because all the staff knew your parents
Then we went to the nearest bigger town with niteclubs where they decided to check ID's for the first time in the history of the world, so my date (with my jacket on) and most of my mates ran on into the club and I had to sit outside and wait till 3am for them to come out before I could get a lift home (30km away, no taxis and no mobile phones).
Fifteen years on and i'm still bitter....
should have gone surfing that day!
