go for it ;)

thornrose · 01/03/2014 23:16

Hope your decorating looks ok tomorrow (speaks from bitter experience)

I totally get that feeling of having time to yourself and not wanting "the party" to be over.

exWifebeginsat40 · 01/03/2014 23:20

i'm a recovering alcoholic. the drink, it creeps up on you...just a friendly warning.

LEMmingaround · 01/03/2014 23:21

Will look out for your hangover thread in the morning :)

Seriously though - three bottles, thats a worrying amount to be able to drink. I thought i was hardcore, i CAN drink two bottles of wine without passing out, but only just and i get a three day hangover and puke everywhere - its not a pretty sight.

Ange1104 · 01/03/2014 23:23

in bed (bliss) with no arms or feet in my face (yeehaa). will report tomorrow on truly awful decorating! Blush

Ick.

I used to drink shit loads too.

Thought it was great. Woohoo I can drink several bottles and then go onto spirits.

Until they (in the words of Amy Winehouse) tried to make to go to rehab. but I said no no no

Lots of water OP. You're gonna feel it in the morning!

AmazingBouncingFerret · 01/03/2014 23:24

I apologise if that song is now an earworm whilst you try to pass out get to sleep! Grin

ouryve · 01/03/2014 23:25

Shit. Just shared 1 bottle with DH. I'm not an infrequent drinker by any stretch of the imagination but any more and I'd be ill.

BrokenToeOuch · 01/03/2014 23:26

Wooo!! Go you!!
Seriously though, drink a pint of water, have another pint beside the bed for the middle of the night. Refill so you have a further pint in the morning.
It sounds like a very rare one off moment of madness, nothing to get angsty about.
I can't drink more than a glass of red wine or else I get a banging headache before I go to bed. Vodka however, well I have been known to work my way through the majority of a bottle on a good night! (Maybe once a year) Home measures are bloody deceiving! Might pour myself another one!

Beastofburden · 01/03/2014 23:26

Have lots of water or a big cup of mint tea and enjoy your boozy sleep cos you are so going to pay for it tomorrow

Ange1104 · 01/03/2014 23:27

must admit though I am singing it now! lol

Lol! Stay in bed as late as possible tomorrow.

BrianTheMole · 01/03/2014 23:30

Bloody hell love, 2 bottles and on to the third? My head woud be in the loo for the next few hours by then. Hat off to you though, but maybe have a cup of tea first, you might find you don't want the next one then.

BrianTheMole · 01/03/2014 23:32

Just realised you've prob had the third one. Sleep well Wink

Blimey I would be on my arse!
Did you finish the 3rd? More to the point did you finish the decorating?

honeycrest · 02/03/2014 05:56

Paracetamol after 3 bottles of wine really isn't a good idea so please don't do that when your head is killing you in the morning. Nurofen plus is your friend, if you can keep it down that is, which I doubt! You will be suffering big time tomorrow

eisbaer · 02/03/2014 07:03

Love how the OP just didn't seem to be hearing words of warning, such was her great mood and LOL vibe.... How is the head OP? I reckon you quaffed the last bottle in about 1 1/2 hrs or did u leave some? Quality thread btw.

Fisharefriendsnotfood · 02/03/2014 07:33

Gosh I opened a second bottle but didn't finish it last Saturday and I felt rough all week!

I cannot get my head around 3 bottles of wine, alone..

And I am a drinker. I am Hmm to be honest.

CinnabarRed · 02/03/2014 08:01

I keep imagining the reverse AIBU:

My DH promised to redecorate the girls' bedrooms. I took the children away for the weekend so he had time and space to crack on. We got home and he'd got thoroughly pissed on Saturday night while we were away; the decorating was completely shite, and he was too hungover to sort it all out the next day - he spent most of the day vomiting. My girls were so disappointed, they'd been really looking forward to seeing their new bedroom.

Beastofburden · 02/03/2014 08:04

Me too, cinnabar.

YouStayClassySanDiego · 02/03/2014 08:12

How's the head this morning Ange?

I suggest bacon, egg and beans and tea when you surface.

Beastofburden · 02/03/2014 08:28

I never found a hangover cure that works, to be honest. Maybe we can do ange a favour and share our top hangover tips?

I need 24 hours and I drink sports drinks, those isotonic ones. Nicer than dioralyte which is frankly slimy enough to make you puke all by itself.

But I haven't dared incur a hangover for years because I just can't bear the pain and nausea.

Lizzabadger · 02/03/2014 08:30

Me three Cinnabar.

Quinteszilla · 02/03/2014 08:38

I hear cod liver oil is great.
