To drink or not to drink?

I have the day off work today, for a lunchtime party. Do I a) take the car and the camera, stick to soft drinks and as soon as I have eaten,take advantage of the free afternooon to go out with my camera or b) Take a taxi to the restauarant, leave camera at home, and get very drunk?

whatever you do, have a great time. I've just got off night shift so will be spending most of it in bed.

(ps if it was me, I'd have a bloody good drink, you probably deserved it!)

Answers obvious really - get drunk, take photo's of yourself in embarrassing situations and post them on the forum!

Have a good time, whatever you decide!

I'd stick to soft drinks, then spend the afternoon taking photographs. However I am biased because I can't drink alchohol because of medication I take! Maybe if I could drink I would suggest you get hammered and having a great time and then take photos anyway ( but minus the car)

Steve is right, a is the good option but I have never been a 'good girl' so I would be having a good time and lots of alcohol.

Snow will still be there tomorrow and you can get up early and get your photographs then!

I decided to take the car, came home and messed with ideas for the weekend competition. I have an entry, not sure it will get votes, but it was a great way to introduce myself to portraits (self portraits to boot), play with my new remore shotter releaase and generally have a fun afternoon. Please gpo to comp entries and take a look.

You wouldn't have had such a productive afternoon if you had allowed yourself to become seriously drunk!
I spent part of the morning working on my first ever entry for the weekend competition; I had planned to go out to capture some 'winter fun sounds' on the ice rink, but had to stay in, to wait for a parcel that might, or might not, be delivered any day now! Grrr ...
