One over the eight?

I had a very strange experience last night. I went over to Ian and Ruths to do some roleplaying and between the 6 of us (or 4 who were drinking wine I suppose) we polished off 3 bottles of wine - two white and one red. That suggests that even if I got more than my fair share I can't have had more than a bottle. The thing is, while I wouldn't say I get through that regularly, it's not an unusual occurance. Other roleplaying sessions, the pub on Tuesday night, parties... a bottle of wine is well within my range normally. Last night though, I was completely fine and normal and then suddenly it was as if I had somehow been replaced by a lightweight. I started to feel all dizzy and very drunk indeed. Fortunatly, we were pretty close to wrapping up anyway but I ended up having to walk home because I didn't feel up to cycling and then having to sit by the loo for a little while because I was worried I would throw up. After about 10 minutes that receded though and I just felt exhausted so I went upstairs and curled up with Alex to go to sleep. This morning things seem to be back to normal because I don't have a hangover or anything (unlike after Saturday). I'll just have to be cautious at the pub tonight in case I'm coming down with something!

An interview by shepline

1. Like me you grew up in East Anglia (me Lowestoft, you Norwich), but have since settled in and around Oxford. How do the two compare for you? What are your likes and dislikes of each, and where do you think you feel most at home? Would ever consider going back to live in Norfolk?

( some of these answers are essay lenght so I'll spare your friends pages... )

2. I think would be fair to say that you have eclectic taste in music - anything from rock to pop to jazz to classical... What type of music is your favourite and why?
