best thing to do in oxford with a hangover is to go for a walk by the river, hit a nice pub and if it's open (and as good as it used to be), visit peppers. just remember- no sauce on just chips.

I'd forgotten about Peppers - the place in Jericho that offered Shark sauce, right?
What was that burger place in a wooden hut, down by the rail station? I bet that disappeared in a Blairite blandrification pogrom.

Glad he's still going. He was in orbit when I first visited Cambridge in 2001 and still doing laps when I left in 2006. I would like to know his story, but I suspect if you tried to stop him, he'd gut you with a butter knife.

yes indeed. aoli was better though. peter peppers (the owner) was a legend. peppers had a hand in a number of oxford marriages too.
yeah, went with update of station/said business centre.
there'll only be the kebab vans left now i suppose.

the gentrification of cowley road is a national disgrace- rents have more than doubled, i believe which has led to the closure of polar bear etc, whilst chains and bars take over.

i once spent the cusp of NYE/ new years day sitting on a curb eating a van kebab. not my proudest moment. quite exciting for oxford in the late 80s though

I wouldn't say this is really true, but if you have a drink with your breakfast in North America, what you call "hair of the dog" they call "alcoholism". The waitress drops her tray, a glass breaks, a baby in the back corner starts to cry, etc...
I used to get hangovers but now I think I've become somewhat immune to them. Although every now and then I'll drink a litre or so of rum and start on pints and the next morning I'm very sorry indeed.

high rents meaning a permanent shop is impossible? i think it's virtually the same in cambridge, they used to have three in the city centre and only one actual shop. whereas in leicester you don't get any vans.
