The morning after

Being on-call during the office night out was annoying at the time – those margaritas that everyone else was drinking looked very appealing, but come the morning after when your colleagues arrive at work looking like death warmed up (and obviously feeling as bad as they looked), being on-call (and therefore hangover-free) becomes a good thing. I discovered a few years ago just how evil hangovers were after the age of 25 after a two day hangover, the result of having got rather merry at a family party. No night out is good enough to be worth that amount of hangover!
