Hangover Food

[Alan Whittle]

Shellfish, like welks or limpets. Grim stuff, a staple of the cockneys. Faced with a bowl full it'd turn you to drink, let alone be your salvation from.

Cockles, Mussels, Winkles, Eels. All staples of an old fashioned cockney trip down the coast.
I’m sure you’ve had winkles in The Lisbon?

I think I only saw my Dad have a hangover once.

Used to go down the pub every Friday night, he could drink a lot. Rock in about 1am, would then sometimes be up at 7ish and go for a 10k run.

Sadly, I never got the no hangover gene.

I think some people can just power through. They'll be hungover but go and exercise and purge their body.

I've had some pretty physical jobs over the years and going into those jobs hungover was horrible but it did clear it out a lot quicker than if I was lay on the settee suffering all day. Even with that knowledge though there's no way I'm getting up and exercising with a hangover - having to go into work forced my hand whereas I have zero self discipline for anything other than laying around and suffering.

I find beasting a lamb shoulder kebab with extra salad does 50% of the work on the hangover for morning, a few glasses of water and 5 minutes in a hot shower and I'm ready for the off licence again handy.

Sausage rolls. Not too greasy.

Cockles in a jar of vinegar. Delicious. Straight out the jar with a little spoon.

sorry to burst your bubble

Haven't burst any bubble, was just hoping there there was a good reason you post absolute cry baby drivel on the regular.

You’re welcome.

Did anyone answer this because I'm not reading the whole thread but wondering wtf cockles are as well

Like I said earlier, I misread ‘cockles’ as ‘cookies’. Much safer and more delicious option AFAIC.

I'm just joshing with you Matty. I don't drink these days either, don't enjoy the repercussions of the next day at all.
