Over 18's here! Luckily, for underage drinkers, there is normally somebody that has an older sister or brother that is willing to buy them booze. There is also the angle of befriending the guy at school that can grow a full beard at 13. If all that fails the underagers normally can get their booze from stealing from families (put a wee dap of water in the bottle to hide the little bit of theft) or even just stealing from a shop. Athough the last sugestion is perhaps the toughest.

 Sadly though, the underages do not use their booze to play stunning chess, instead they go down to the local park and sit in the snow drinking till they throw up.

 However, the government has become concerned with the drinking habits of Scotland and plan to jack up the age and price of booze. So, I suggest to all underagers to stop drinking because it's hitting my pocket. A 2 litre bottle of Pulse cider now costs a stupid £2 or something.

This is not a problem for Booby Fisher though, because he's saved money by avoiding chess coaches and muggers.

 *disclaimer* I do not and never have condoned alcohol abuse. It is irresponsible and damages society and you liver/s (if you happen to get a transplant like George Best)
