that's for elevated blood pressure.
dehydration increases not decreases blood pressure. The only condition I'm aware of that does the reverse is autonomic failure.

There has been some fairly unsubstantiated research that suggests in a small proportion of people there is a very short term (15 mins or so) increase in blood pressure immediately after drinking a large amount of water - thought to be due to a misfiring control receptor - but otherwise, like I say, I'm astonished.

you can get huge variations if you suffer from white coat syndrome.

Be careful mate, the local police and dealers have it reasonably sewn up, so if you want to buy some personal, ask the hotel/guest house people. Same as in any country, they know all the local dodges, and can score you top notch gear, at a good price. Tip them well, and you'll be well looked after.

1) No, probably not. I might retire elsewhere, if I had sufficient funds to do so. I know a number of people who've thought the grass is greener elsewhere only to come home horribly disillusioned a few years later when they've realised that the grass might be greener but the dog turds in it are just as big and bad as the ones here.
2) Freshly baked bread and certain aftershaves.
3) Because your kidneys are knackered.
4) 2002 was a fairly good one.
5) Because.
6) Sadly yes. I will get to go and have my lunch in about 10 minutes though, and this makes me happy because I'm fucking starving.
7) Yes, even though I have no idea what it means. It sounds like the kind of phrase somebody who uses a moon cup might use for their period.

Now to be fair, my idea was "Lets me and you meet up for some dinner", implying some kind of date, like it has been every 4 months for a couple of years that keeps on getting put back...
...which turned into a "Monty and lusty must come with us", implying that you're not interested or want a double date.
...which turned into a "how about X Y Z come along?", implying that the whole date thing is out the window, which is completely fine, I'm cool with having dinner with a whole bunch of friends, I honestly really don't care, get to try out some amazing resturants that you and monty always go on about.
... which turned into a "Monty has no money, but he said we can all go around to his flat instead", which kind of implies some kind of so-ray.

Which is all totally cool, and I would have enjoyed it if I was well enough to come, but it wasn't exactly my idea.
