Preemtive strike thread

[pseudolus]

SO i started boozing at 11am today. Home now at 1am, and facing the surety of being in a bad way tomorrow, but also know that I have a date with destiny tomorrow as well (as in, meeting some other blokes for a beer up).

My preemptive strike against hang overs is a teaspoon of baking soda in a pint of water washing down a handful of paracetamol. in this state though I will replace the water with one of those orange powder jobs full of electrolytes you are advised to drink when you have the tom tits. Then I only have to confront tiredness unless I can get some shut eye. Which i wont.

What is your preemptive strike of choice?

Steak and eggs. Drink copious amounts of water.

[CaptainNemo]

I think you need some tomatoes and lettuce and HP in there... try tzatziki instead of mayo... and get the thick back bacon and grill it slowly.

Age and regular consumption

Keep your daily intake at approx 7 pints, and a night out won't hurt you

I used to have awful hangovers; not any more

You would't run a marathon without preparing, would you ?

just tell yourself that the hang over is part of an Illuminati conspiracy to rule the world, then your hang over till disappear in a puff of nano thermalite

Wasn't that Mr. Earls remedy?

Might have been. The redeaming virtue of that stuff has been in the literature for a while now.

Whoosh, right over your head. Did you miss Earls threads about the virtues of drinking one's own urine?

Is that pre-emptive?

Like the man says, a litre of water and a few paracetamol is pre-emptive.

Just try not to think about your liver.

[VocalNeal]

A pint of water and an IbProfen before bed.

The problem is remembering so best to put out before leaving for a night out.

Best for me, but can't get here, is RESOLVE.

Just like that, and a xanax next to the bed for when I wake up; 1mg for small hangover/2mg for big hangover.

[Latindancer]

I'd be careful of the paracetamol. Seriously........https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracetamol_toxicity

If you're sober enough to be thinking about "pre-emptive" strikes on your inevitable hangover, you obviously havn't been drinking enough.

Bunch of fucking big girl's blouses.

[Ozcol]

You obviously weren't wearing your TD amulet stupid.

[harrybarracuda]

Avoid hangovers by simply staying pissed.

This has worked for me; I have been doing this about 15 years.

Eat a base meal before a drinking session or outing.

Thereafter eat a small meal every 3 hours (or so). Can be a bar food like a sausage or a home half sandwich or sandwich or a convenience store mini-meal.

Every 2 1/2 hour I take one-half of a vitamin B-complex. On a longer nightly session I'll take 3 of these "halfs" and always to another half right before you go to bed.

During the drinking session regulary take small sips of water (from a water bottle, e.g.).

The next morning you will NOT have a hangover (unless of course you go on a massive bender of say, 10 hours+).

Avoid hangovers by drinking sensibly , enjoy 2 or 3 pints then have a cola or sparkling water .

Might not seem such a good idea at the time , but you will appreciate it the next day

Its a great life , why blot it out ?

Mixing Paracetamol with booze is like hitting your liver with a shnitzel hammer.

If you do this, do it very rarely.

[klong toey]

I just stay drunk 24/7 never get chance of getting a hangover that way.
