A pub in Heathrow. Good if you need to get completely bladdered before flying, but bad because the nearest allowable cigarette is miles and miles, and bloody hours away.

Also you really shouldn't get drunk before flights. Try Prozac or powerful downers - it doesn't dehydrate you and is much more calming. Then drink lots of water and try and sleep. You'll feel a million times better when you get off the flight.

Of course, having said that, we always have two drinks as soon as the stewardess comes round. Partly to celebrate the fact that the potential fireball that is 'takeoff' has been bested.
