If you want to wake up at six o'clock just gently bang your head on the pillow six times each time saying, "Six o'clock." or seven times for seven o'clock, five times for five etc..obviously you don't say six o'clock for these ;-) Used to work at school...... As for stories...do you know the story of Jim and Michael who went hiking in the hills...? Waking up?

Who thinks these jokes up? They travel across the ocean and even did so before the Internet. That has always been a mystery to me. Very funny, Grannymar and Nancy. Who thinks these jokes up?

I always set the alarm on my mobile and together with it's snooze facility, it never lets me down. @ Thrifty You'll enjoy this... The summer I met my 'man' (1976), we went camping in the Outer Hebrides, for <em>three weeks</em>. GM will remember this - It was a summer like we haven't had since, with non-stop sunshine (and NO, I wasn't wearing rose tinted glasses!) Anyway... We bought a 'rover' ticket which gave us free rein to explore all the islands by ferry, stopping off to camp on each one overnight. The ferries between the islands, tended to depart very early in the mornings. We had no alarm clock between us (no mobiles in those days) so 'yer man' would feed me loads of coffee in the evening to guarantee we'd be up early enough to catch the ferry :-( No need to worry, I've had plenty of opportunity to get my own back :twisted: Do people still use alarm clocks these days?

How? When he was ready for sleep he just thought for a few minutes about the time he needed to get up. Well that is what he told me... he might have thought about a buxom blond for all I knew. ;) Thrifty

We do pay attention to our bladders though. Actually I almost never need an alarm clock, if I need to be awake at a certain time I am. I'm weird.

Or the old trick of drinking a load before bed and therefore having to wake up to pee? He was just stupid, that's not confined to gender. Err, why did he not just use an alarm clock?
