I wonder how others deal with their hangovers. Any magic remedies?

After years of "study" frequenting various purveyors of alcoholic
beverages in the city of Glasgow, I have come around to the conclusion
that a Subway sandwich, usually 12" tuna with "everything on",
liberally
washed down with large quantities of Barr's Irn-Bru (accept no
substitutes); all consumed at c. 3.30am, while considering
transportation
options for the return journey back home; offers "thermo-nuclear
protection" against the worst ravages of the dreaded hangover.

Is Glasgow unique in having several Subway outlets open well into the
wee
small hours, staffed by burly doormen to control (and occasionally
eject)
the crowds of drunken revellers who descend upon such establishments
after "chuckin' oot" time at the nightclubs? I think the question has
to
be asked. :-)

And let us not forget the traditional kebab shop, which offers some
"meat-like" substance of dubious origin in a chapati sandwich, covered
in
a mysterious spicy sauce, garnished with bits of raw onion and cabbage.
No, I stay well away from those, having discovered the Subway cure is a
lot kinder on the digestive tract. :-)

Over to you Highlander - the supreme expert in drunkedness..

You still have The Highlander's photo on your desk, don't you?
Ah, unrequited love!


Note the names who replied to the original post and their detailed
knowledge of how to cope with a hangover.

No wonder the French call drunkenness "the Scottish sickness".

The French?
What can I say?

Don't be so ungracious!

I seem to remember that one, a fellow called Lafayette was of some
small help to the Americans during the revolution, but of course it's
probably just another example of Yankee propaganda to show how much
the world loves them...

BTW, I smacked a friend of yours in sci who was being ungracious about
you. The man from Donegal.

I have a rare gift for making enemies on behalf of others...
