Going out tonight - how to cure a hangover...

December 31st 2007 05:03
Things your granny should have told you:

"HOW TO CURE A HANGOVER".

They say you should not have got yourself into such a state where you need to cure a hangover in the first place. Easier said than done. You need a little ingenuity and hope springs eternal in the pursuit of such a remedy for that annual over-imbidement. Such things are suggested in the "Schott's Food and Drink Miscellany". Worth a read?

Read below:

1/ The Embalmer: a pint ofcold tea mixed with slices of lemon.

2/ The Lazemby: hot water infused with ginger, cloves and honey.

3/ St Marks Pick-me-up: 10 drops of brandy, two glasses of water, a glass of brandy, a shot of curacao and some lemon-juice. Mix well.


4/ The Doctor: raw egg, brandy, fresh milk (sherry may be substituted)

Or take a bath and a lie-down -and a vow of abstinence! Happy holidays.

The Writers Lounge says: for the younger brigade anyway, a bit of the hair of the dog that bit you will be good for you. Have a good meal before you hit the road, Jack!

Have a great time!
