We’ve all been there…but not really.

Have you had your Christmas party yet? Chances are it was a messy night with events going down that you’d rather not even try to remember.

Earlier this month, it’s speculated that BBC weatherman Tomasz Schafernaker was at his work Christmas party the night before and had the unenviable task of presenting the weather on the breakfast show on BBC Radio 4.

During the shipping forecast a wave a nausea came over him that no amount of fist clenching and repeated swallowing was going to be able to stop.

His voice broke and he mumbled an apology before his co-host had to take over.

He took to social media later that day to reassure listeners that he was in fact fine, and had to leave the studio in order to be sick.

It happens to the best of us…
