anyone got any good ones? I'm in pieces, and an XL bacon double cheese hasn't done it for me.

There is no cure, cant do the time etc etc. Although Dells is the best bet, you''ll probably still feel like shit when you get up. It's when they last 3-4 days you need to worry.

Caramel macchiato from Starbucks with an extra caramel shot

failing that get a job as a lifeguard and sit on poolside and sweat it out - always works for me!!  :D

Regardless of how i feel when i get home from a night out i allways take 2 paracetamol's with a pint of water.

Somehow, taking 2 paracetemol after a skinfull doesn't really sound that safe to me.

Should probably go with asprin and not paracetamol.

The best thing to do is just to get up, do something, make a cup of tea, take your mind off it. Going back to bed is the absolute worse thing you can do.

Or just start again.

Water, sleep and Lucozade sport - preferably the summer fruits one

Got this one cracked after Glastonbury.  We drank cider and beer steadily all through the day and then hit the red wine all night on top of other goodies and I completely avoided hangovers using the following kit:

The below should be kept in stock at all time…
Water
Vitamin C
Milk Thistle
Barocca
5-HTP (From H&B) best taken the night before

Optional Extras…
Paracetemol for headaches
Alka Saltzer for gut ache
Rehydration salts (available from boots) for the ultimate heavy night

The last bit of advice is to get outdoors. Nothing helps kick a hangover than a bit of fresh air and activity.

Are we talking hangovers, or you've got a headache?  I call a hangover when you're ill due to alcohol, not just feeling a bit rough.  With a proper hangover there's no way you could go on a 5 mile run.  You're too dehydrated for a start!!

I had a hangover this morning too - made worse by te ids getting me up early even though I was off work.

Basically, you are trying to rehydrate and stock up on salt and sugar.

I always use the same routine - Lucozade (the original glucose one), 2 paracetamol and a bacon or sausage sandwich. You will be feeling chipper again after about half an hour.

I went to watch United v Juve last night and was spannered by half time. Got home about half 2 (I don;t actually know, but I brought a beer at 2.26am in my hotel, which I found untouched by my bed this morning!) Had to get up and get on a train at half 9! Then negotiate the tube in town and then come to the office.

Terrible day. Gonna soften the edges with some red tonight me thinks!
