Never knew there was a connection between coffee drinking and hangovers, but since giving it up, my hangovers aren't so bad, even though I'm drinking the same amount of alcohol. Also feel more chilled. Maybe I'm 'caffeine sensitive' or something, but I ain't drinking coffee again.

I was reading in the week that caffeine is the worst thing for hangovers, tempted to give it a go.
|

By:
it's appalling for hangovers. caffeine is a diuretic and will dehydrate you even more.
|

By:
You would think more would be made of it and readily available to the consumer.

I do not drink tea or coffee and very rarely get hangovers.
I went to the Purple Turtle last night and still came out unscathed this morning. |

By:
i think you find alcohol is worse for hangovers

You can usually find me in the VIP of Sakura followed by Sugar Lounge. I'm kind of a big deal. |

Is that the purple turtle in Reading? I was in there once and convinced a couple of student girls I was in fact probation officer for my 2 charmless mates. I kept it going for a good hour until we left with them, unfortunately at this stage I lost the use of my legs and had to be assisted to avoid a ride in a nice police car. Must have been something I'd eaten.

Once upon a time when I was poor I looked at a room to live in that is above the Purple Turtle, also owned by them.
It was one of the most disgusting rooms I have ever seen. £80 p/w I think. |

By:
Didn't it move to bigger premises?
|

By:
Is it still in Gun street ?
I used to work in Reading during the 90's |

By:
It is still in Gun Street. It is now nextdoor to a Subway and an Indian restaurant I think...

I must have first gone in there in the mid nineties when a regular at the Reading Festival. Had a weekend in Reading about 3 years ago for a gig at The Hexagon and went in to the pub again - seemed much bigger than I remembered and had a beer garden through the back.

well, i have to admit, a nice cuppa tea seems to do me wonders in my road from Hangover Hell...
Although, my comic tonic for years has been a bowl of Ambrosia rice pudding. 20 mins after one of those bad boys and I'm ready for most things. Shame i wasn't hungover today or i could test out the tealess route. |

By:
You can`t beat a nice can of coke for a hangover imo

With regard to the OP, I have a major coffee addiction. Don't think I've ever woken up hungry, but always wake up craving coffee - hangover or not and most of the time if someone gives me de-caf I notice straight away.

I am going to a have a caffeine free week next week, well try too.
|
|
By:
thanks for tip wur, will give it a try
|

By:
Done 2 days so far.
Got some decaffeinated tea which was horrible but the coffee is drinkable so far. Might have to try and get hammered on Friday to give your advice a thorough test. |
