    They don't do 'sessions'. It is all the time.

    For example, a pint of port and brandy for breakfast is quite normal when at their level. Well, not Gascoigne's, he's still only practising. But I would expect the likes of Oliver Reed to have been able to shift a few litres of spirits in a day.

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

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

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.
    Will remember that for next time thanks
