This happened to me on QF94 (LAX-MEL) once after I had complained that the champagne was not sufficiently chilled. The FA's then opened another 2 or 3 bottles and rotated them through the ice bucket to get to the desired temperature. I felt obliged to drink as much as possible. However, during the night I paid for it as I made several trips to the toilet but on my knees. I think the FA's were quietly chuckling to themselves as they watched me crawl from 3A to the toilet and back! Next morning I was too seedy to even have breakfast.
BTW, I love your trip reports!
