      While off the booze this is a very nice non-alcoholic tipple.

              How quickly do you recover? Do you get hangovers?

              My 'problem' is that no matter how much I drink I never get a hangover, no idea why and my GP has no idea why either.

              Staying off the booze means I lose weight quicker and I don't feel like smoking so a win win.

                Don't you have to sober up before you get a hang-over? #justasking

                  Despite the rumours I don't actually drink that much.

                    Aye - I get horrible hangovers. But I do enjoy the escapism of getting proper pissed.

                      Proper pissed I usually keep to weekends but that just means half a bottle more than usual. I think the trick is to drink relatively quickly to get the buzz then I get hungry so eat and then I don't feel like drinking any more.

                      End result is pished for a while but sober relatively quickly and really not that much alcohol consumed. The most I've had to drink were at the London meets I attended, two bottles of red and a couple of glasses of bubbly followed by an excellent pizza somewhere nearby on the way back to the hotel.

                      In the house perhaps a bottle of red and maybe another half if I've got company.
