Not really. I just said that for the "on a good day" joke, which I stole from Adam Kay.

I do recall when I was young and stupid (as opposed to old and stupid), I drank half a litre of vodka in about ten minutes. It provoked a bit of sneezing for some reason. It was weird - drunk, but wide awake. I don't recommened it.

It may have been 10 but I actually can't remember.

It definitely wasn't much longer than walk to the kitchen and make a new cup of tea...

How's the head this morning.

Up at 5:30 and I feel fine. But over the limit to drive.
