I thought complete memory loss after 8pm the night before when on the lash was standard? Clearly I have some issues to address if it is not. A fair proprtion of nights seem to skip from the 2nd pub to waking at 6.30am the next morning glancing around to confirm location.
Pretty much with you there. I used to think memory loss was standard. I think the weekly binges resulted in at least a 1 in 3 blackout rate, but until the last year i've drank spirits exclusively for nearly 10 years. Now i'm back on the beer though, things have righted themselves. Besides, my homing skills are second to none and no harm has ever come of me.
I do have a friend who has woken up nude in strange places a few times and always provides incredible tales. One of my mates also woke up in the centre reservation of the A419, up by Toy-R-Us, a few years ago and he didn't live anywhere near there.
