So, I’ve got a big weekend planned: after work drinks, party Saturday and dinner with friends on Sunday. Does anyone have favourite drinks for these occasions? Let me know your top 3 for each!

And no doubt I’ll end up with a massive hangover tomorrow. I usually try egg and bacon or tomato juice depending on my mood. Anyone have any tried and tested cures?

The tried and tested cures vary from person to person and obviously depend on what, how much and how long you drink.
To even understand a hang over, you must first know what causes this process in the body.
As alcohol is a know depressant and it dehydrates the body, I find that making sure I have a healthy meal, prior to embarking on a big night out is a start point.
Plenty of water and the preparation for the body fairs better the next day.
I always have hydrolyte, ( from the chemist) in the form of ice-blocks or in the mixed liquid in the fridge.

I make sure I have taken one of these as well as really fill up on water. That's before I even start.

The poor ole stomach cannot take the changes in acid content, if you are not prepared to eat well and top up on fluids. And if possible I take a glass of water before getting into bed.
Hydrating is the key to it. As well as pacing how much over a period of time, no sculling.
It works for me.
