Dave's World might just have stumbled across the best thing EVER!

If I had a euro for every time I woke up after a heavy weekend of partying and said "I'm never drinking again", I'd be sipping mojitos on my yacht in the Caribbean right now!

But I don't have a yacht, or piles of cash, so it looks like I need to get into "Alcarelle" to help stay true to amend my empty promises.

A scientist by the name of David Nutt is in the process of making his "hangover-free" alcohol substitute drink (Alcarelle) available in the next 5 years.

"Alcosynth" is the nickname of the alcohol replacement molecule involved, which acts as the active ingredient to give you all the same sensations of being drunk - minus the insufferable hangover the following day.

He hopes international drinks companies will incorporate Acarelle into their products in the not-so-distant-future.

We'll drink to this!

Dave's World also teaches us at what speed jogging becomes running, reveals the world's healthiest place to live and introduces us to an insect that can never get drunk.

That'll be like us on the Alcarelle!!
