    Hangover cures

    Diarroeaha salts - buy them in the chemist. One of them in a small glass of water has the effect of 7 pints of water. They contains all the minerals, etc, that you need to rebalance your body chemistry. Drink one before bed with a couple of nurofen and it makes a world of difference. If you forget , have it when you get up, takes about half an hour to kick in. Works wonders. Trust me.

    Coke - a can of coca cola is miles better than coffee if you wake up with a hangover. Don't know why, but it seems to help.

    Greasy food - a fry up helps. With a can of coke (full fat, not diet) instead of coffee.

    Sleep - catching up on sleep after you've done the above, helps.

        Tequila.

        Absolutely excellent for a hangover.

        At least two times when I have had a really bad headache & sickness hangover, tequila was just the thing. Surprisingly.

            Oh no, far more than that. Typically about half a bottle.

                  A ½ bottle of tequila wouldn't have touched those guys. And anyway, they would have drunk it the next morning, not the night before.

                    I think Coke is better than tea because it has so much sugar. Irn Bru is supposed to be good too.

                      Yeah, a coke does perk you up. Irn bru also, although I would normally drink diet version normally (coke zero etc).
