Feeling a little tender today?
Well, take comfort in the knowledge that 899,999 Brits are in exactly the same boat as you.
A survey into the nation’s hangover habits has revealed that nine million Brits will suffer the after-effects of too much booze this week alone, with Friday (December 18) the most popular day for the office Christmas party.
Hangovers aren’t just for Christmas though. The poll carried out by SodaStream of 2,000 booze-drinking Brits also revealed that 12 per cent of us pull at least two ‘sickies’ a year due to hangovers. Londoners are the worst, with 12 per cent taking at least five sick days a year due to a hangover.
Oh, and five million of us regularly have hangovers that last 25 hours or more. FML.
As this handy hangover map of the UK shows, it’s those in Northern Ireland, the North West and Scotland who suffer the longest hangovers.
