2 day hangovers

Frikkin Evil · May 25, 2009, 10:58:22 AM

I was out for a few* beers on Friday, starting at lunchtime and ending about 10pm (had to share an expensive taxi home). The thing is, I was like a zombie on Saturday and still felt like death on Sunday.

This seems to happen to me a lot lately... does anyone else experience this? Is it just a sign of getting old? Will I have to stop the flaming Sambuca chasers once and for all?

*lots of

I started slowing down at 25, hangovers that weren't there at 15 were kicking my rs, by 28 they were up to four days and I basically quit drinking (I'd been at is since I was 12), by 32 I was easing my way back into it and now at 37 I am back to what it was like at 15.
Take a wee break and all will be well.

I have to take a wee break after 4 pints!
It used to be 6

4 pint bladder.. That's still pretty good going Jeff.

Bazza's probably right, I need a break. Mind you, last year I quit booze for a couple of months and 9 months later I was a Dad!

I don't drink so no need to worry about sore heads and expensive taxi fairs. It's great, mind you i get a sore head listening to drunk dimwits going on and on about pure crap.

I've had some pretty nasty hangovers, normally from drinking cheaper poor quality beer. I generally only drink more expensive beers. Not only do they taste better, but when I have lots I feel considerably better at the end of it all!

I would not trust a man (or woman) that I had not got drunk with and heard them pour their heart out! It is hard to lie when *BLEEP*ed.
Just my way of 'checking out' a person

SAD... but I do it my way

I would certainly agree with bazza I used to go out everyweek and then spend the rest of the weekend in bed but after about a year of just occasional binge drinking I wake up feeling fine

I would never give it up completely I would just be kiddin my self lol

Beer is awesome and the best hangover cure is another pint

Usually stick to Stella or Kronenborg, depending on my diary for the following day, i.e. today I have been drinking Grolsch with PeterC whilst taking my 4 apart, having had 'several' yesterday during and after the football and after a little lie-in it was 'spanner time'

Ooh, Kronenborg is one of the worst culprits for a 'sair heid' in the morning for me. Stella aka 'Wifebeater' is not too clever either. I was on Carlsberg for the part of the evening that I can recall fully. The rest is... vague.

I'm with flyingtele on the quality beer theory, but sadly not that many places know what quality beer is.

Stick to copious amounts of Jack Daniels.
