    Can you not be sociable with yourself? I'm a past master at bringing a smile to my own face.

    PS What is mulled wine made of, apart from wine, anyway? It tastes rather like chair legs and marmite to me.
    Doesn't the alcohol boil off though?

    Red wine, cloves, cinnamon, orange zest...

    Red wine contains melatonin which causes drowsyness. Perhaps the fact that it is hot invigorates the effect?

    So the 2 coffe mugs I just had at borough market are to blame for my drowsiness then.

    Have it on occasions but I'm not a great fan of cinnamon so will usually go for something different if on offer.
