Hangovers are slightly more complex than you mightat rst think.

Te famous comic writer P. G. Wodehouse cameup with what is surely the denitive classication ofhangover types in his Jeeves and Wooster novelTe Mating Season.According to Wodehouse, there are

six hangovers in all: the Broken Compass, the SewingMachine, the Comet, the Atomic, the Cement Mixerand the Gremlin Boogie.

Each hangover type has its own specic characteristics.And before its going to be possible to even think abouttacklingyourhangover, you will need to work out whattype of hangover you have. Bertie Wooster had hisinnitely resourceful manservant Jeeves to help himget to grips with his morning-after wobbles, most often

with his legendary pick-me-up drink that is discussedon page .

Unfortunately Jeeves is not at hand to helpyou. But Milton Crawford is at your service.

And thankfully I have come up with a veryshort series of fun visual tests and a briefquestionnaire that will help you to discover

whether you are dizzy from the Cement Mixeror blown away by the Atomic.

. How does your head feel?

a) Its like I have four different brains all bickeringwith one another about who I am and what Ishould do next. Its giving me a headache.

b) Someone appears to be sneakily stabbing myhead with something sharpknitting needles,perhapswhile Im not looking.

c) If it wasnt attached to my body by my neck, I feelthat it would already have oated away by now.

d) A bomb has exploded inside my skull and all thatsleft is the drip, drip, drip of alcohol creatingstalactites and stalagmites in my empty, aching caveof a cranium. My brain has disappeared completely.

e) Im sorry; I missed that. I just stepped out of a

washing machine on the spin cycle so will youplease say that again? Im really dizzy, by the way.

f ) What, I still have a head?

. How about your stomach?

a) I cant really tell. Sometimes it feels really great;totally top-notch and rst rate, and other timesit feels like something the dogs chewed on ratherruminatively before spitting it out on the carpetin disgust.

b) Strangely enough, the same person, or acollaborator thereof, who was sticking somethingsharp in my head has now turned their attentionto my abdomen. Bastards!

c) Oh, ne, I think. I hadnt really thought about it;I was too busy dreaming about swimming withcolorful sh in a tropical sea. I might be a bit gassy,though. Whoops!

d) So empty that Im sure a really vacuous vacuumin the back of an empty warehouse in a desertedindustrial estate in the most remote area of aforgotten city would have more in it than mystomach.

e) Its sloshing and churning; a ride in a rowing boatduring an Atlantic storm in autumn would becalmer than my insides right now.

f ) My stomachs currently staging a mutiny againstthe rest of my body. Youll have to ask me againlater once Ive (hopefully) reasserted control.
