I can honestly say that i was definitely "Squiffy" on Xmas Eve -watched a lovely Bernardo Bertolucci film which i hadn't seen in ages (The Last Emperor) and was on the edge of becoming Maudlin because of the music (by Sakamoto).

Luckily my Giddy tendency took over and a good nights sleep left me no side effects. Mind you i did only drink wine and am careful to drink one glass of water for every one of wine!
The last time I over-indulged on alcohol was at a very posh wedding in 2003.

As I have got older, I have found that my taste for alcohol has diminished greatly. I prefer a good strong cup of tea.
