Hello 🤕🤢

So this time of year, it's not unusual for me to drink a bit more than usual, but after yesterday's announcement and just the general shitness that is this year, DP and I went out for a (possibly last for a while) dinner and noticed the wine was flowing a little too quickly. Also noticed that all other tables around us were doing exactly the same. There was this sense of mild hysteria in the air and there was a lot of talk about how shit everything is, followed by unhinged, maniacal sounding laughter.

Anyway, after our 2 hours was up, we got home and decided to crack open the rum and watch and talk shit until 2AM 😑🙄 Great idea 👍

Currently on the sofa feeling like death, surrounded by presents which need wrapping before DD gets back from her dads.

Anyone with me?

😭😭😭

Not today but had several like that this year

Although in my part of Scotland you’ve not been able to eat out past 6 or get an alcoholic drink out since 10th October.

Last night was relatively sober. DS is ill and needed company.
Otherwise, several parties for 1 and countless hangovers. I feel like such a loser.

Waxonwaxoff0 · 20/12/2020 12:55

Not last night but I've done it a lot this year. Wine

Kab30 · 20/12/2020 13:10

Yep....one bottle turned into 4!!!! We are not feeling the love today xx

Britishmanagersclub · 20/12/2020 13:14

Yep, I must have had at least 1.5 bottles of wine. Full of woe and regret.

Monsterjam · 20/12/2020 13:15

Yes. And spend nearly £300 on a cardigan ooops x

Skipsurvey · 20/12/2020 13:16

more than 2 bottles of cider, bed at 1.30 ! Shock

Skipsurvey · 20/12/2020 13:17

in my defence i didnt start drinking until 10.30 pm,
dc unreasonable shopping/driving requests.

CorianderQueen · 20/12/2020 13:39

Yes, but I'm also working so am trying to type while feeling like death

Kab30 · 20/12/2020 13:50

I'm coming round a bit now ....shower and peppa pig lol x

I'm off it due to medication but the being-saved-for-Christmas-Day Yule log doesn't exist any more, so I feel terrible for that.

EssexGurl · 20/12/2020 13:54

Yep, but Tier 3 - now 4 - so no going out here. The Christmas stock took a battering.

AdoptedBumpkin · 20/12/2020 13:54

I had one drink last night and feel Confused

Ghostlyglow · 20/12/2020 14:41

I've been drinking quite a lot these last few weeks and I've noticed my tolerance has definitely increased Grin

alwaysneedmore · 20/12/2020 15:13

As anyone also noticed that hangovers have been more brutal since lockdown, I'm normally lucky and don't suffer, but my god during lockdown they have been truly vile and left me completely unable to do anything.

vixb1 · 20/12/2020 15:13

Every year we have a Christmas jumper party with our friends. We decided to do a zoom version last night.

I'd bought a bottle of orange truffle baileys for Christmas, but we cracked it open last night.

Felt like utter death this morning. Sadly my 1yo and 3yo didn't care one bit!

But no regrets, think I might need to get another bottle in, it is incredible!

Urghhhhhh · 20/12/2020 15:45

I managed to just finish wrapping. Only took me 3 hours! 😬 Have come upstairs to hide in bed for a bit before DD gets home.

Coke. I need coke! And a massive burger with cheese and bacon. Yes, I'm at that place now 😂

DSis, DBIL, DNephew, DD and I had a Strictly party. DSis and I stopped 3 bottles of wine, a few beers and some voddie from going off.

I'm not feeling too bad, but I am knackered. Long walk, shopping and loads of cleaning have taken their toll. It's not the booze, oh no.

ThorFull · 20/12/2020 18:53

I’ve just made my first martini of the season.

I can see where this is going....

Now?

I'm at THAT place every day! Lol

I haven't had so much to drink that I have a hangover in a very long time but I have had something to drink nearly every day this week so that's not good. Hence, it is why I am always wanting a greasy, bacony burger.

Kab30 · 20/12/2020 23:24

My Chinese has hit the spot ....hooray...feeling normal now its bedtime lol x

Xmasdinnervwpolo · 20/12/2020 23:27

I'm on it tonight.

I was actually talking to a friend the other day and they were quite surprised at how little I drank during this year, lockdown etc. I've still had to get up for work (WFH) and my kids are hardwork when I'm hungover.

I think after that conversation, I'm making a subconscious effort to drink more. Either that or the shit show that has been this weekend has driven me to drink.

TheChosenTwo · 20/12/2020 23:30

Ha! Wasn’t really suffering this morning but after the announcement we switched the tv off, put some music on and had a bit of a kitchen disco after dinner with the dc. Had a few beers and a couple of glasses of wine. Glad we stopped when we did and went to bed Grin

FrontRowSeat · 21/12/2020 06:44

Why do we crave Coca Cola when hungover? I’m exactly the same. Delicious stuff. Also, McDonalds. Must be something to do with salt and sugar Hmm
