Go and buy some fruit. Have a long cool bath. Get some jasmine tea and drink lots of it while it's still hot (don't make it too strong, half a teaspoon for a big teapot). Don't smoke or take any pills until you feel straight again. Walking and swimming are good, if you can. Nothing stronger that boy's lager or frascati if you must drink booze.
That's the Black Mask De-Tox Plan. I am still alive.
And if you do go for a swim, make sure you topple into the pool like Cameron in hugely overrated teen flick, Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Or do it panting in scuba gear like Teh Graduate.

Bollux to them there do-gooders. What you need to do in this situation is MAXMIZE-AH YOU"RE POTENTIAL!
Towhit, grow a lovely long whitey beard and tell everyone you started drinking when the Chinese threw you out of the temple. This can be Tibetan, which is always good for a few sympathy beers, or Shaolin, which is even better and everyone will think you is a dead hard ninja-drunk who kill can them with a sick from 500 paces. The choice is yours.

Sorry to hear you're in a bit of a state, benway. Think you need to stop reliving what you can remember of the weekend. Just concentrate on apologising to your body and take it from there.

I was in London last night, enjoying a drink and a catch-up with Stealgate who is currently, I'm sure you'll all be pleased to hear, training to be a psychologist. Anyway, we were in some bar in Convent Garden, perched up on stools in the window, watching the honeyed midriffs of moneyed youth drifting by through the pleasant dusk when Stealgate did a massive, almost comedy, double-take. I looked to where he was pointing and realised that the guy walking down the street in a state of some disarray was none other than Benway.
He was wearing a backpack and carrying a lump of cardboard - presumably for use as bedding - under one arm. In his other hand he was toting a can of Kestrel Super Strength (World Cup edition, featuring a cartoon Kestrel in George Cross facepaint vomiting into a coolbox). He looked in pretty bad shape to be honest and I was on the verge of calling him into the bar - Stealgate told me not to bother, though, as he thought it highly unlikely that we'd be able to get poor Benway past the doormen.

I know it's probably not much help, but would you like to meet up for a drink tomorrow night Benway. I'm in London but not staying over, so we could have a couple of pints.

I don't know what I'm doing tomorrow night. I ended up having a fairly large drink last night, and I need to find some time to call Louise, but I don't want to do it when I'm exhausted / hungover / drunk. So, if I feel alright tonight maybe I can call her. I might not be able to call until tomorrow though cause I got no credit on my phone right now and it takes frikkin ages for payments to go through. So, it's in the air right now. But I could probably have a lunchtime pint tomorrow. I don't know, I don't know, I'm feeling too tired + hungover right now.
