Cure for a hangover.

[Khandro]

Byron's recipe for dealing with a hangover begins, 'Ring for your valet, bid him quickly bring some hock and soda water'. Can anyone improve on this ? - my valet seems to have disappeared this morning.

Maybe I exaggerated a little regarding the cheese.

Also, beetroot & carrot juice with a squeeze of lime, a dash of Tabasco and lots of ground black pepper cures pretty much anything for an hour or so. Fights of the demons for a little bit - which is just enough time to be productive before crashing out again.

Dave, It can't be any old snifter, though. You wouldn't really want a glass of dry white wine, when you've got a mouth like Gandhi's flip flop.

No indeed flip - you have the wisdom of youth ;)

Large VaT clears the palate nicely :)

[mccfluff]

:-) i may try that recipe, with a little less cheese of course

[fliptheswitch]

Haha Dave. I'm not sure I could stomach a spirit, with a hangover. I'd have to go for something a bit less hardcore, I think. Nice, ice cold beer :)

What's with Hitler jR? Little booger is everywhere today!

[fliptheswitch]

Because, Hitler was evil (and working in league with Lucifer!) and democracy won over an evil, fascist dictatorship!

[fliptheswitch]

Sorry! That was meant for Hitlers other thread....!

A big fry up with a bottle if Irn Bru should do it :-)

Some years ago, the New Scientist magazine did a survey on hangover cures and preventions.
Hair of the dog really does work, but only briefly. It only postpones the reckoning rather than cancelling it out.
Water helps, but the Top Answer is N-acetyl cysteine.
Take 2 capsules or tablets of this before boozing - result - a miracle. no hangover. It is a bit expensive - a bottle of them can cost over £20

Epilogue; I survived, and thanks for the advice, at times it seemed like touch and go, particularly when contemplating ingesting Ab Editor's pound of cheese!
