    Though I do hate the ones where you wake up feeling fine an it turns out you're still drunk, only to have a monster hangover in the afternoon.


    I wonder which one is Bunk experiencing at this very moment.
    A mixture of 4 and 6. It's not quite an apocalypse but it's unpleasant. However, I went home for a power nap and now I feel fine.

    One of my worst #2 memories was a regrettable evening spent with some colleagues on a contract with a large retail bank.

    A 2 day workshop was bridged by an overnight stay at a country manor hotel, accompanied by a night on the tiles. I can only remember the following:

    1. Toppling off a high bar stool approximately one hour after the meal finished
    2. Encouraging colleagues to have 'just one more drink' with me back at the hotel
    3. Playing [i.e. bashing the keys of] a piano in a deserted part of the hotel
    4. Kissing a barman
    5. Being woken abruptly a few hours later by a loud banging (boss banging on door), to find I'd 'slept' on the bathroom floor
    6. Joining the workshop an hour late, very drunk, dressed in clothes from the night before
    7. My hangover commencing at lunchtime

All I did was sit in bed afterwards, being sick, or revising, and I guess it helped me out in the end, as I revised more. But the next day, was as painful as I can remember; the room looked like I'd had a brawl in it, I had a broken nose form falling down the stairs (I assume) and, well, it's a distant memory now.

    All except #3. This means I have had far more #2 than I should have done.

You can't quite remember what it was you said or did that was wrong, but the wrongness of it is nethertheless wedged inside you, rotting you from the inside out.
    Was it cousin Benny? The one with the club foot and lisp?

    So did I once, when I sniffed a funny hankie. Gave me a sore head and bum.
