Why do you feel more drunk and quicker during lunch time? Or is it just me?

PS Oh BTW its medicimal today, i'm in pain and the pills aint working.

Pills and drink don't mix.

If I ever have a beer before 2pm I'm knackered by 7. Makes me all drowsy.

Agreed my mates trying to get me down the boozer just now - no chance.

Emptier stomach = tipsy quicker...

Depends whether you have a pit stop for Tea/Dinner

Nothing better than a 2:30 kick off when Wales are playing (rugby), get in to the pub dead early, have some bar snacks, drink through, then have a bite to eat and carry on into the night, then have a nice slap up chippy on the way home

Morrisons pre cooked chicken - though it was about the size of a pigeon. Could have even been one. Did wonder why they didnt hang round morrisons any more

The enzymes that break down alcohol quicker are more active in the evening and less so during the day

I tend to drink 2 lunchtimes a week really.

But yes it does seem to effect you more... And no, I don't go back to work drunk.

Experience of course - he used to be an enzyme

they sent an e-mail round at work last week cause of some people taking excessively long lunch breaks... :eek:

3 pints and thats it, I'm out for the night I cant stop as I get the taste for it. And if thats at lunchtime, god help me...

Never more then a half (and that's rare), I just end up completely dozy. I also find drinking late afternoon early evening before dinner wrecks me. I had 3 pints between about 4 and 7 a few weeks back on a Friday. Ended up in bed by 9.
