    Right, drank about 600ml of JD yesterday then pints, not too late of a session and was in bed by about 4-5am.

    But today I can't taste a thing :(

    OJ for brekkie - couldn't taste it
    Greasy takeaway lunch to cure the stomach - couldn't taste it
    Now i'm drinking a can of Bulmers, and can't taste a thing :(

    WTF's going on here then?

    Um, well, you haven't lost them, they are just dulled, how about stop drinking for a while?

    Bordering on medical advice, but as a doctor I can tell you: You're dying.

    Merry Christmas.

    Go to an Asian store and get yourself some proper chillies.

    They're as hot as your sister.

    Eat a chili. That'll cut through your lack of taste for a while. :D

    600ml of whiskey and cans? That's just plain irresponsible. Pull it back a notch if you want your liver to work past 40.

    Only 600ml of whiskey.

    Thats a pack of BS. It should take at least 2 bottles before your bodily functions begin to deteriorate.

    Down a load of water, see if you sleep it off, you could be getting a head cold.
