How HUNGOVER are you?

[PILTDOWN MAN]

I spend disproportionately more time and money in pubs in December. Can business owners really not come up with a budget that deals with seasonal fluctuations?

When most true locals are truly struggling to survive it's Christmas time that normally keeps them going over winter. Most pubs are quiet enough come January and February without people promoting the non use of them.

Don't know what you do but it's like a massive campaign deliberately aimed at hurting your business through no fault of your own. I doubt you would take to lightly to it.

Feel pretty good. I have an amazing hangover cure but am unable to divulge on here due to legal reasons.

Not at all for me,though the state of one of my mates who missed his lift home last night and slept in a phonebox in Bracknell is questionable.Acting like that at 46

I don't normally get hangovers, but today my head is pounding, didn't mix my drinks, stayed on white wine, although I must of sank at least 4 bottles !

Didn't drink last night but have a persistent cold so sort of have a hangover equivalent.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Horrendous.

I dunno if it's just me but I don't think a fry-up has ever helped a hangover. Myth.

True. The only cure I know is a day of regret, being grumpy and feeling sorry for myself.

Which is exactly what I'm doing now. In bed.

This is debatable.

Do coffee and tea really dehydrate us?

It is not debatable. As stated, it dehydrates your brain.

It is not debatable. As stated, it dehydrates your brain.

Actually, caffeine and theobromine are duretics, so the body loses water and, via osmotic forces, so does the brain.

I have a shocking neurofen-resistant headache right now, but it may be just the start of a headcold. Pretty sure I was still ver ver drunk when I woke up this morning. Me and Mrs Tackle did tuck it away last night. And we had a great deal to drink as well. I’m doing dry January (again), largely to shed the six pounds of lard I somehow welded on to my gut over the holiday through prodigious grazing and guzzling. I did a precautionary ¾ of a dry November last year in anticipation of an endless cycle of largess in December. No idea if it helped, but it seemed to annoy a lot of people when I mentioned it, which amused me. Happy New Year from chilly Kent (not an anagram, it’s where I live).

First NY day for years that i am hangover free. This is thanks to having a 5 week old baby. We had soen friends round but I'd decided to let teh wife have a few drinks as 9 months of abstinence deserved it so i had 2 - 3 pints and that was it. Loving the fact i don't feel crap.

 

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

Pretty solid 6/10.

Woke up at 1.15pm and arrived at work 2.15pm, late and slightly swaying. So far I've mostly got away with it.

A boring NYE in leads to a clear head for the blast to Brooklands today....wouldn't have wanted that with a screamer.....

Bollocks.

 

[Nibble]

Steady but non lethal drinking last night, got up today, lit the fire, step brothers cooked fry up, 5 hour game of Risk, roast topside of beef, film and wine in front of the fire. Clear head, good day. Can't complain.

 

[Captain Sensible]

Worst hangover in years is finally lifting.
