  • I'm Alice.

  • And I'm Rob.

  • You look very pale, Rob.

  • Are you OK?

  • Well, I was a rather boozy wedding party last night,

  • and I had a bit too much champagne.

  • Oh.

  • Do you know any good hangover cures?

  • A hangover is the headache and sickness you can feel after drinking too much alcohol.

  • And a cure is something that makes you better.

  • Well, I'm tea total.

  • I don't drink alcohol.

  • So I'd say the best hangover cure is not to drink in the first place.

  • You don't believe in hair of the dog then?

  • No, Rob.

  • I don't.

  • Hair of the dog is the belief that drinking more alcohol when you already have a hangover will make you feel better.
