I woke up yesterday morning feeling absolutely rotten. I guess that you're all assuming that given it was a Friday the day before, this might explain the lousy feeling. Well, there's a flaw in those thoughts as I had a very early night and hardly any booze.


I woke up this morning, having had a very late night and having drunk copious amounts of JD and I feel like Mary blinkin' Poppins!


Anyone else experience this - or should I just register for AA now? :-S

Am I correct in assuming that the JD was mixed with Coke? The Coke helps to re-hydrate you and all the sugar helps too. I drank loads of JD and coke on Friday night and didn?t feel that bad yesterday.


Last night however I was at a party and halfway through the evening the hostess decided to start making liberal with ?cocktails? that consisted of chilli-vodka mixed with Cava. Today I feel like something that was scraped off the sole of a shoe.

I'm like that with Apples and Cider. I once got totally embarrassingly sh1tfaced on Weston's Scrumpy at what used to be the Phoenix and Firkin, and ever since then I can barely eat an apple let alone drink cider.

JD & Coke is my fave drink though and I am determined never to get drunk on it for I would hate not to be able to drink it. Next year in USA one of the many places I am planning on visiting on the tour is the JD factory!! Yummm

I used to do this too. I started drinking Jack Daniels at 16 because my hero Keith Richards drank it (straight from the bottle). It wasn't until my pancreas started screaming 13 years later that I started to put coke in it.


And, Anna I seem to recall we put plenty away at the Forum's wedding of the year and thanks for the taxi ride home.

Ditto.


But I quickly learnt that I much preferred it with Coke or at least ice. That way I didn't have to struggle not to pull a face after each swig.

In the art of rock n' roll behaviour they all learnt from Keith Richards. All the rest that followed are just pretenders.


Hmmm....Jack Daniel's

But really: Only Smarties have the answer

==============================================

>:D< I was thinking that earlier. Only I'm not that keen on chocolate so I'll settle for JD, or VLS or lager.... Hmmmm (?)(!)

I accidentally drank a bottle of Gallo White Grenache (it was on special at Sainsbury's for ages - brilliant) on a week night a few weeks ago. Accidentally in that it was so cold and tasty that I didn't even realise I was getting pissed.


Anyway, I went to bed pretty worried about the consequences, but woke up feeling better than I usually do in the morning with no booze! What the hell was that about?!


I'll give the JD trick a try at some point.. but on a weekend in case it doesn't work for me.

    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who, by moving to your position on the right, are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand).
