BagOfCrisps 24 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I might just drink some more to make sure I don't pay with the throbbing. Link to post Share on other sites

indosnm 0 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 round 6-8 beers and asixy of smirnoff blacks. Not feeling terribly bad, but not the best either! Beautiful day at the beach helped. Link to post Share on other sites

Mantas 3 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 6 beers, that's it! Didn't want to ruin a beautiful day on the beach and in the boat. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I drank a shed load last night, my parents had a huge party and the beer was disappearing like snow off a dyke!!! Got to bed at 6.30am this morning and woke up around 1pm....not at my sharpest!! Tomorrow I have a nice 12 hour flight back to Japan to enjoy.... Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Nothing as I picked up a stomach bug and have spent the last 36hours rushing from pc to toilet - GREAT FUN! Link to post Share on other sites
foreversnow 5 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Very controlled New Year as I knew we were getting up early and off in the boat all day. Nothing worse than a stinking hot day, out in the sun with a hangover. I will do my celebrating when I go on holiday. Link to post Share on other sites
nzlegend 1 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 4 shochus, 2 tequila shots, a Jager shot, a half dozen tequila sunrises and screwdrivers (nomihodai)...and no headache! mostly clear alcohols in that, gotta avoid dark alcohols to avoid hangovers. Beer is the worst drink to go hard on, makes you feel like crap the next day and gives the worst hangovers. Beer is best enjoyed in limited quantities and of a high quality brew. Of spirits - whisky will screw you up too (dark alcohol) The nomihodai "beer" where I was was hopposhu! nasty chemically hangover material if ever there was. Link to post Share on other sites

JA2340 16 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 n o headache, cost me nothing! OTOH, I spent the day working on the house, gotta get it ready for the trip to Japow which starts in a couple of days! Bed soon! Link to post Share on other sites
foreversnow 5 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 WOW 2 days before you leave JA. Where are you heading and how long?? I still have 34 days to go. Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Ex OOL 5th, Touring Honshu and Kyushu for a week, then Nozawa Onsen 14-24 th. We'll be well back before you leave! 3 more wake-ups! Link to post Share on other sites
HelperElfMissy 42 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Have fun JA! Make sure you pack 1/2 and 1/2 in the bags! LOL I woke with a shocker of a headache but it was not an expensive one. I had 3 glasses of a lovely white wine with my dinner at Strada overlooking Tower Bridge. And then wandered along Waterloo Bridge to check out the London Eye and Fireworks for New Year. It was beyond cold!! Unfortunately the headache was the result of a headcold catching up with me. Probably picked up from the nasty coughing woman Paris to London on the shoddy BA flight that lost my suitcase. Stocked up with Cold and Flu meds and should be right. ***Interesting to note cold and flu meds with pseudoephedrine in them which are controlled substances in Aus (limited to one pack with a drivers license recorded per day) are freely available here in London. Yet an over the counter Ventolin Inhaler (in Aus) is only available on prescription here! Annoying as there were 3 Ventolin's in the suitcase that was lost! Hoepfully they will be OTC in Paris, Milan or Switzerland. He has enough to last for about a week given reasonable health. Link to post Share on other sites
foreversnow 5 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 HAVE A GREAT TRIP JA!! Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Because inhalers tend to have steroids in them, which are controlled substances I think in the UK. Also a lot of cold and flu meds are limited to 16/32 I think per person per shop. Nothing to stop you from going around the various shops though. And JA - make sure you have insurance Link to post Share on other sites
