One cure for a New Year's hangover


Just ten hours into 2007, I was outside enjoying a beautiful sunny morning with my neighbours and taking part in our annual hangover curing ritual .


No this doesn't involve indulging in a stiff 'hair of the dog', rather some stiff physical exercise. As the lane is privately owned, the six householders are responsible for maintaining it. This means sorting out potholes, raking over gravel and clearing out debris (mostly footballs), muck and vegetation from the stream that runs alongside it.


Here's yours truly working off the after effects of that new year fizz. Even better I was able to soak in a relaxing bath afterwards and listen to Liverpool thrash Bolton 3-0. The new year can't get off to a better start than that!
