The sun is so precious on this dreary little isle that the minute the warm embrace of summer hugs you into submission you can€™t help but toast it again and again in spite of all the feelings of worthlessness and accompanying aches that you get in your lower back the morning after. And while mindless boozing might be great fun, drinking enough alcohol to reanimate George Best is about as healthy as your befuddled state of mind.
