It's a Mad and Fuzzy Friday

Dec18200911:27 a.m.

Okay so today has been officially coined Fuzzy Friday, the day when approximately 44% of us are nursing sore heads as a result of the night before. Yup, last night apparently was the most popular evening for the office bash, when we all let down our hair and sink a few. So, if there is a whiff of stale booze, a bleary eyed and depleted team in your place of work today you know you are not alone.

Fuzzy Friday?

I still don't get though - why plan a works do for a week night? And after a bit of research I am not sure this Fuzzy thing has got legs as today is also known as 'Mad Friday', the day when all 999 services are poised for action as festive revellers plan to celebrate the start of the Christmas period.

So, for those of you that are more 'mad for it' this morning than fuzzy, and planning a big boozy blow out tonight, I thought the following would be helpful, a nice sliding scale of how a few scoops (or several) will affect you...

1-2 Units - Cheerfulness and an increase in self confidence


2 Units
- Increased risk of accident


3 Units
- This is over the legal driving limit. Significantly impaired judgement.


4-5 Units
- Above the legal limit for driving. Potential loss of driving licence and cause of serious accidents.


10 Units
- Slurred speech, loss of self control, maybe aggressive.


12 Units
- Inability to walk straight, loss of memory


18 Units
- Approaching toxic levels. Continued drinking will lead to unconsciousness

Oh, and to check how many units make up your favourite boozy bevy, click here to tot up your beer, wine, champers and shots.

Now, not that I would condone binge drinking at all, I am going to be realistic, I'm going to aim for either the 1-2 ,or the full blown 12 unit mark, they seem by far the nicest out of the bunch.

Bottoms up...(hopefully it's not mine though, I am struggling with the length of my skirt already today and I haven't had a drop yet).
