00:00When I was young, there were no video games, there was no, you know, Netflix, TV,
00:07so our socialising was going out, so, you know, I was in the military,
00:13so when we weren't on duty, we were out, you know, drinking.
00:19Yeah, I mean, I don't really drink much, I'm a young person,
00:22lots of my friends don't really.
00:24I mean, it's still big, you know, lights out are always happening in Cardiff,
00:28but I do think there's less pressure these days to do it,
00:31and people are more understanding and sober curious, I guess, as people say.
00:35There's more ways to have a good time than just going out and drinking.
00:39Absolutely, but I don't drink myself, and that's how I do it.
00:42Everything's so much more expensive these days, isn't it?
00:44Like, a pint was £2.30, it's now £5, so it's just the money.
00:51Pay isn't enough, living wages have gone up,
00:56so I think it is because everything has gone up in price.
