Some time ago on a lovely Saturday morning, I decided to do full on gardening. Weeding, trimming branches on trees, mowing..all that jazz. My reward was a cheeky beer when I felt I accomplished a fair bit. So off I went, starting at about 10:30 am. Felt like I was working for a solid 4-5 hours and had probably 4-5 beers. Realised I was a bit tipsy when all was done....and it was about 12:30. Managed to do all the work and get fairly sloshed.
Had a nap and woke up at like 4 pm with a mild hangover.
Never again.
I'd say 'never again' as well. Until the next time I did exactly the same thing :)
I learned from my mistake that time. No more beers until after work is done. Coffee and water as fuel during the process.
