It's International Hangover Day! Who is the god of hangovers and which book does he appear in?

@dwcon Bilious, the "oh God" of Hangovers, appears in Hogfather IIRC.

So August 5th is both the international day of hangovers *and* the international day of mead? It feels like they should be on separate days… like, one day apart.

@villtin my research indicated that International Hangover Day is the day after International Beer Day which falls on the first Friday in August (rather than on a set date). Therefore, this year Hangover Day is on the 5th.

@dwcon Aha! That makes more sense.

@villtin @dwcon International Hangover Day precedes International Reannual Mead Day…
