Oooh MN. Why can't I get it into my thick head that I'm too old to drink like a teenager.

Last night's after-work pub session ended early but after no dinner and only salad for lunch I was high as a bloody kite by 8.30!

In spite of an early night and lots of water I've been able to do nothing all day but clean my house and watch old episodes of River Cottage. Made fish and vegetables earlier but only picked at it.

Am about to steal myself to go to the corner shop downstairs for emergency supplies.

Give me your recommendations! I think one sweet, one savory and one drink will do the trick but open to ideas. He sells pretty much everything. Go!

You madwoman! The hangover psyche is far to delicate to deal with such unpredictably!

Ahhhh memories of my first huge hangover with New DP (now DH). Spent the morning spewing in the shower. While I was feeling sorry for myself he went and got orange lucozade, bbq pringles and multiple bounty bars for me. Then surprised me with the best McDonald's I've ever eaten - Big Mac meal, choc milkshake and side order of nuggets. No wonder I married him Grin

Go big OP. Get munchies, crisps, fizzy juice and Chinese/Domino's

Oh Jesus I totally fucked it. They only had Dairy Free B&J and the fekkers had gone and run out of Fruit and Nut too so I panicked and got plain. Beef hulahoops sort of jumped out of me and randomly found myself adding a Dr Oetker pizza. Fizzy water. God that was traumatic. Having tiny hair of the dog to calm down. You guys are the best.

OK, this is THE hangover cure. It works for the common cold as well...

Irn-Bru - chilled
Marmite Toast - 3 slices
Kitkat - must be the 4-finger bar

It has never failed me.

Thisnamechanger · 02/02/2019 19:05

Marmite Toast - 3 slices

I've only got that bloody healthy sunflower seed ryebread crap

I have half a tray of delicious homemade chocolate brownies ,......

ninecoronas · 02/02/2019 19:14

LadyMonica 100% Yes Irn Bru. Then a grab bag of wotsits and a Yorkie. Dinner of champions (and long distance truck drivers)

Crunchymum · 02/02/2019 19:18

If I was being "sensible" I'd go for fizzy water, ready salted crisps and something like a Galaxy.... Just a plain bar of chocolate. That is dealing with your fluid, salt and sugar intake.

In reality is go for a diet coke (don't like full fat!) A massive bag of cheese and onion Kettle Chips and a Wispa.... although Wispa's have shrunk so I'd need 2 Grin

Crunchymum · 02/02/2019 19:19

Scrap that - I would definately go for the Domino's

hatethinkingofusernames · 02/02/2019 19:19

My go to corner shop hangover is-
Can of full fat coke- never drink it unless severely hungover
Massive bag of chilli Doritos- always buy 2 just in case

Where are you getting River Cottage pls OK? I really want to watch the first 2 or 3 series again but YouTube is unreliable. (And I advise All The Chocolate)

MrsIronfoundersson · 02/02/2019 19:24

OP not OK!

OurChristmasMiracle · 02/02/2019 19:24

Rice crispies and chocolate- to make cakes. Eaten warm out of the bowl.

(I am a disgrace to women everywhere!)

Is generally lovely hangover viewing except they just pulled a lamb as I was shoving the last bit of pizza in my mouth. Envy

My hangover cure:
Full fat coke
Salt and vinegar crisps (either pringles or walkers)
Bourbon biscuits

Although sometimes I need fresh orange juice. I’ve had many a drunken dream about pouring myself a pint of fresh orange juice.
