Went to a local nightclub, paid £15 on the door and all drinks were free. Dont remember too much after that. Cant have had that much because as a rule i dont drink.

But I don't think it's celebrated because of that, it's just because of our country being Americanized really.

Err, no.

21 is the traditional British coming of age.

In the year 1999 for me, got given a ticket to see Chemical Brothers, a point-and-shoot 35mm camera, some booze and precisely £181 (£100+£50+£10+£21... the latter being £1 for each year). Oh, and also got given a wireless mouse which was unusual for 1999 and it lasted 4 years before I had to replace it.

Tag Heuer watch, still use it 8 years on, was either a party or expensive present, went for the watch, something of the parents that you can keep and use for ever.

Car probably, I have a friend who got a new KA for her 18th birthday. (she got a boob job as her graduation present)

House...unless it was in trust and part of the inheritance...unlikely although possible.

I was kind of trolling a bit lol. When I hit 21 I received my inheritance from all my grandparents as they passed when I was fairly young. Decided to use it for a deposit on a flat and rent the other room out to help cover the mortgage. Would definitely have just spunked it everywhere if I hadn't.
