    Those internal negotiations you make while working away

    1st beer : ok now listen here ole son, 2 pints max then off to bed.

    2nd beer : on track ole son. Just stick to what we agreed and you'll be fine.

    3rd beer : well dammit, it's been a long day and you deserve it. Feck it why not.

    4th beer : ok this is definitely the last. Have a glass of water before bed and you'll be fine.

    5th beer : gosh this hotels nice. This beers going down a treat. If I have some peanuts and a couple of glasses of water before bed I'll be fine.

    6th beer : ok what was I saying. Ooh look CUK. Did I pack the neurofen? Couple of bags of peanuts, 5 glasses of water and a pot noodle I'll be fine.

    7th beer : hotel, bill, zzzzz, <slump> .... Change of blood ..... Peanuts. Whiskey? Germany, <hic>. <slump>

    8th beer : liver. Dammit. Organ transplant. Ooh look, squirrels. <slam>

    get a sudukio.
    read the paper, if you dont start the sudukio within 2 pints, you'll never finish it
    do sudukio
    after 4 pints, give up
    start thinking about your slab of stinky blue cheese and jar of pickles waiting in the room


    repeat for 20 years

                  that would have me reaching for a bottle of red or port.

                  oh dear 2 bottles of Isla Negra on a school night. But we did have our curry dinner cooked by an ever so nice lady.
