Heartland

I use my mobile as my alarm. This morning I woke up naturally. No moby in sight and then '... s**t! s**t! s**t!' No clocks upstairs so ran downstairs. 06:55! 's**t!' One hour late or two hours late for work? I'm doing the getting ready/bus times/train times calculation in my head whilst running around like a headless chicken. After 5mins I just suddenly stopped.

Johnny, it's Saturday. You don't work on Saturdays.

Once every six months this demon comes to visit me. Am I alone?

You're never alone on Heartland. :vomicon:

I never panic in the morning. Except when some bugger's smoked all my cigarettes.

So what's your alarm tune? Mine's Pink Floyd's Time. Those clocks scare the s**t out of me every time.

Summer.

I hope you've got the smoke and lights right.

How could I complain? I was staying overnight at your house.

But 10/10 for you as you went to local shop in the morning before I'd woken up.

I needed nicotine. But I don't mind you thinking it was for your benefit.

Off to introduce Luke to the genius that is Freddie Starr.

Happens to me every know and then.
The great thing is the moment you realize that you don't have to work
and jump back into bed....

Alarm tune: Alice 1993

How can you have fancy tunes on your alarm clock? Mine makes D-RRRRRING D-RRRRRRING, D-ROOOAAARR.

Mmm, must try that..

Spent all of last week either sleeping through my phone alarm or somehow finding that I had either slept on it, thus turning it off, or turned it off in my sleep..

Perhaps my subconcious is telling me something about my job...

Anyways, I have Lucretia and Flood II on my mobile this now, really need to play them on a bus when someone decides that all and sundry would love a bit of dancehall/bashment first thing in the morning...

bastichs..

it happens all the time to me, only its usually the other way around
waking up, hearing no signs.. Ah it must be weekend. and than a few moments later I realise I must have slept right trough the alarms and I'm late allready

I use the alarm on my Cd player so I got every day a new fancy tune.

Who needs alarm clocks when you've got a dog?

..or a five year old daughter who climbs into bed with us at 6:50 prompt EVERY morning!



bless!

My mobile goes bing...bingy-bing...bing-bing-bingly bing...
And gets increasingly annoying the longer you leave it.

Miss Sinister's usually goes off at the same time, and it's her ring-tone, which is an evil laugh! I'm getting more and more paranoid come morning, so my body usually wakes me up just prior to our alarms. Hence, I suffer from the same problem as Johnny ALL THE TIME.

Mine know it is useless trying to wake mummy... The cat still tries, but he is young and very hungry in the mornings. He will soon learn.

Working nights means no more early morning calls... Hate mornings!

mostly some sort of Metal over here, becaus if I use a Sisters record I'm sure I won't get out of bed

was an mp3 of "no time to cry" but it was too groovy and i always left it on.

is now an mp3 of the cure's "100 years". wake up with a start? you betcha!

and yes, i'm usually "late" for work, ie: i get in just after 9.30 (thank you transpennine express!), but luckily it doesnt matter in my current role

Nobody likes a gloater, Barry.

I was in at eight today.

oi
I wake up around 6am works starts at 7.30am untill 4.25 or 3.15 pm

my rinalarm tone is 'this is the chris moyles show' which is hell of an incentive to get out of bed

This happends to me too. To often. I think it mostly happends when I drank to much the night before a Saturday.
