Who among us has not the post-Hogmanay stained jumper, where a shoogly hangover hand lifting the precious can to your lips went slightly off-piste and slopped down your front? Or worse, the after-effects of a UEC (unexpected exploding can) incident?

I suspect he’s really banned it because the colour clashes with his face.
