Hello
I’ve developed a hangover prevention method which means you can still have alcohol. I've written up the method as an online course so you'll learn how to prevent a hangover in the first place.
Click on the Linktree in my bio. It is called Hangover Prevention Method Course.

I've been in Hay, the book town in Wales, to host a cider tasting and talk at How The Light Gets In Festival. It's the type of amazing festival of ideas where a Nobel prize winning mathematician & philosopher Roger Penrose cosies up with a booze mistress (me) in the book shop!

A very big cheer for Hiranthi Cook of Cidentro Cider for winning GOLD at World Alcohol Free Awards 2025
I was one of the judges and this was the only gold medal awarded for cider. Hiranthi only recently started making no alc cider so to win a major award on her first try is most impressive!

Look at this gorgeous packaging for Anthem, a completely delish session pale ale newly released in cans. It is brewed by St Austell Brewery from all British ingredients.
I have drunk it many times as a real ale and now its in cans I will be drinking it many more times.
