Ronnie Wood's bender could go down in history...

Ronnie Wood's bender could go down in history...
Just like this lot

July 14, 2008 - Mirror.co.uk

Even for a Rolling Stone, this is one hell of a bender.

Ronnie Wood, 61, has spent the past fortnight on a vodka binge with 18-year-old cocktail waitress Ekaterina Ivanova.

Wrecked Ronnie is reportedly so drunk he doesn't know where he is.

His drunken bender may well go down in history along with the likes of these...

JOHN LENNON

Not one to do things by halves, the Beatle went on an 18-month drinking session in California.

In June 1973, Yoko Ono decided she and John would separate and he should hook up with their personal assistant May Pang.

So during 1974-75, May and Lennon, who was shot dead at 40 in 1980, lived a debauched life in LA.

Partying hard with Harry Nilsson, Keith Moon and David Bowie, Lennon called the period his Lost Weekend.

DYLAN THOMAS

The Welshman - whose life story is currently being portrayed on the big screen in The Edge Of Love - revelled in his image as a drunken poet.

His most spectacular monthlong binge took place in New York and culminated in his death, aged only 39, on November 9, 1953.

Six days before he died, he spent a whole day in bed drinking beer and whisky, then went out for more booze and announced on his return: "I've had 18 straight whiskies. I think that's a record."

OZZY OSBOURNE

With a singing career punctuated by drug and booze binges - during one he infamously bit the head off a bat - it's a challenge to pinpoint his worst bender.

But a five-day vodka spree in 1989 ended shamefully in Ozzy trying to throttle wife Sharon.

She had him arrested but Ozzy, now 59, couldn't remember a thing. "I hadn't a f***ing clue," he said. "It's the most horrific feeling. A policeman said 'You're charged with attempting to murder Mrs Osbourne'. I just went numb."

JIMMY WHITE

He was nicknamed Whirlwind - and not just because of his prowess on the snooker table.

Married to Maureen, with five children, Jimmy, now 46, was the kind of man who'd pop out for a pint and not come back for a month.

After one match in Dublin, he holed up in a hotel with snooker ace Alex Higgins for six weeks. He said: "It was a great craic. We had our own bar and Thin Lizzy and UB40 visited. I stayed so long because I was scared to go back to my wife!"

AMY WINEHOUSE

Barely a day goes by when Wino, 24, isn't hitting headlines for one drug or drink-addled incident or another.

She embarked on a three-day jag in August last year, downing a mixture of booze, ecstasy, cocaine and the horse tranquilliser ketamine which landed her in hospital.

Days later, she was caught smoking heroin at the Four Seasons Hotel in Hampshire with husband Blake Fielder-Civil.

SIR FRANCIS DASHWOOD

He might have once been Chancellor of the Exchequer and Postmaster General but Sir Francis Dashwood founded the notorious HellFire Club, dedicated to the drinking of staggering quantities of booze and enjoyment of immoral acts.

He held fortnightly orgies for decades before his death in 1708, aged 73, and was once described as having "the staying power of a stallion and the impetuosity of a bull".

OLIVER REED

He was as well known for hellraising as his mesmerising screen presence.

It was more the quantity of alcohol the Oliver! star sunk, rather than the length of time he spent propping up the bar which puts him in the benders league.

One night in 1974, at the actor's Surrey home, he and 36 Rosslyn Park rugby players drank 60 gallons of beer, 32 bottles of Scotch, 17 bottles of gin, four crates of wine and one bottle of Babycham.

ANDREW FLINTOFF

When we won back the Ashes, who could begrudge "Freddie" a 32-hour bender, which started minutes after England beat the Aussies in September 2005.

He drank all night and was then seen downing vodka and cranberry juice for breakfast.

The session ended when Freddie, now 30, fell asleep on an open-top bus and his England team mates scrawled "t**t" across his forehead.

CHRIS EVANS

A three-day bender in 2001 left the DJ tycoon with a £1m hangover after he was sacked by Virgin Radio - and lost an unfair dismissal case.

Following an all-day booze binge after his Breakfast Time show at 9.10am until late at night in lapdancing club Stringfellows, his then-wife Billie Piper called the radio station to say he wasn't well.

But instead, Evans, now 42, carried on the mammoth pub crawl, resulting in him losing his job and being locked out of the station.

HADRIAN

Perhaps it was the stress of building that long wall but the last few years of Roman Emperor Hadrian's eventful life was one long bender.

He had a lingering illness which made him crave death. When he couldn't persuade anyone to help him commit suicide, he indulged in orgy-style eating and drinking, and stayed in a drunken stupor until he died in 138AD at 62.

Despite his achievements, those final years stopped the senate from granting Hadrian the honours normally given to an emperor after his death.

Drinking: Dos & Don'ts

1 According to Government health guidelines men should not regularly drink more than three or four units of alcohol a day and women not drink more than two to three.

2 After an episode of heavy drinking it is advisable to refrain from drinking for 48 hours.

3 If you're worried about your own or someone else's drinking, call the free 24-hour helpline Drinkline on 0800 917 8282.

I really don't like alcohol anymore.  I've had 2 liters of rum in my freezer that's been there for years.  lol.  I drink red wine occasionally but in moderation.  The feeling of being drunk just isn't what it used to be.  Maybe I just had too many bad alcohol related experiences as a younger lad.  I certainly never went on any benders like these fellows had.  That doesn't even sound like fun to me.  I'd rather go on a 3 week acid bender.  :shrug:

I feel the same way.


started drinkin way much into my early teen years, then even when I turned 21, I didnt go out an get WRECKED like most 21 year olds do when they turn that age.

I've had more bums buy my liquer/beer (when I was a youngin), than I've personally bought myself after turning 21.

truth be told.

Cannabis binges are the only types of binges that I enjoy.
