I haven't had one of those since they banned smoking in bars and

Seriously? Second hand smoke would give you a headache the next day?
Note: Not looking for a flame war - just curious if it's a figure of
speech or not.

Seriously.

I used to get headaches after frequenting particularly smokey venues
regardless of whether I'd consumed alcohol or not - and the first time I
had a 'hangover' having not consumer any alcohol was a revelation.

Eventually that stopped - I guess my body developed a tolerance for a
certain amount of smoke - it would be interesting - in an abstract kind
of way - to see if it happens again now I've been able to avoid
encountering tobacco smoke in any concentration for a number of years.
