The 25 Stages Of An Irish Hangover

1. This pint of water before bed will neutralise the 10 pints of Guinness

Bit of food to line the stomach, bit of water to flush the toxins out. Won't be a bother on me in the morning.

2. If I sleep till 10 that'll be a nice six hours

Sure that's all you need any night of the week.

3. Three hours later...

Jaysis I'm bursting for a whizz.

4. It's so bloody warm

5. Three more hours of trying to get back to sleep

OK, back to sleep. Why is my brain buzzing!?

6. Acceptance of the fact you'll never sleep again

Feck this, I'm getting up.

'Hello Mammy. No, I'm absolutely fine. Not a bother on me. Any craic at mass?'

8. To eat or not to eat, that is the where's the toilet?

The walk from the bedroom to the kitchen, and now into the living room was simply too much.
