Can't be that nice if you've still got a garage full of the stuff. More effort required Sol'. Just had some crisps with my nice cold Moretti, they were my first crisps since lockdown. I don't feel the best and it's not the lager that's done it. No more crisps for me.
Crisps make me feel like shit too. I struggle to walk and talk and they give me a hangover from hell. Or maybe it’s because I shouldn’t eat crisps when drinking?

That made me laugh out loud. You wouldn't believe the amount of dodgy currys and kebabs I had on the way home after a night on the piss during my late teens which led to projectile vomiting. It was never down to the beer

Arf
I read an interesting book about 20 years ago where they had conducted experiments in a lab controlled environment. They got people pissed and got them to do things. The next day they asked them what they had done the night before. People couldn’t remember.
The 2nd stage of the experiment was to get them losses to the same state again and then they asked them again about what they had done when last pissed and this time the could recall it all.
What they concluded is when we are pissed our brain goes in to emergency mode and uses a part of the brain (to store information) that isn’t used when sober. It was an interesting read.

A lad I went to uni with from Neath told me his Dad had however many pints the one night, ate a banana and then was sick and in 20 years had not eaten another one.
Yeah, drinking most days whereas normally it was only maybe 3 or 4 days a week. Gone back on sugar in my porridge as we've no honey and can't be bothered shopping. Eating tons of bread as I'm home more, and it's convenient. Also not walking as much as it's a little busy out there. I'm sort of hoping, being less stressed will balance out the negatives, as I'm only working at 75% of usual.
Crisps. Nuts. Pork Scratchings. I think it's a midlands (Black Country/Birmingham in particular) thing. I always have to have a snack when I'm in the pub. I just don't enjoy beer anywhere near as much without some crisps or other. In London people will have the odd snack but most don't. Or is it just me??

The only snack I remember you having in the Griffin was Guinness

Peer pressure.
Italy have the best bar snacks ever. When I lived in Garda, you'd order two beers and 5 minutes later a plate of ham, cheese, crisps and bread would be plonked in front of you gratis. Even in the shit tourist bars, a pile of crisps was de rigeur. Scratchings had yet to be exported unfortunately...
On my way. Well … it's been added to my post-lockdown bucket list. Talking of which …
