“Make a choice to try it. Make a choice to go to a night where there's no alcohol. Have a comparison. I truly believe up to the age of 13 I never had a drop of alcohol and I had fun. I laughed, proper belly laughs, danced, was stupid, engaged, had great conversations, socialised. So, had I not had alcohol, would I have been boring? Would my life have been better? I actually think it would have been.”
