Situation Normal - Bush pissed up, heavy hangover

Ex Harvard / Yale heavy drinker George W. Bush missed a Friday morning working session of the G - 8 Heiligendamm summit on Friday morning.

The White House said it was probably due to a bad pint of beer.

French President Nicholas Sarkozy did however penetrate the medical defences and told a waiting world " He will join the working session when he can."
