Dear Pauline Quirke…

Dear Pauline,

As Ronan Keating once sang ‘Life is a Rollercoaster’ – though thankfully without the long queues and height restrictions. I have most recently come to note this observation when, in the space of 2 days, I experienced the up of my first flaming sambuca (a side-effect of meeting my friend George’s niece for dinner) and the down of the morning after.

I was wondering therefore, if you had any tips not for curing hangovers, but for experiences that could match the high of that fiery spirit without the alcohol related issues. If you could make your response nice and short that would be ideal as I am currently quite busy, and have vowed not to read more than 3 lines of any email.

Yours,

Herbert Rumbelow
