Anybody know what time I need to set my alarm for tomorrow?

Do you still need to know what TIME to set your alarm for?

That depends on what TIME you need to awaken.

You got it all backwards. You set the alarm for the time when it is time to go to bed. Why would anyone want to set the alarm to awake oneself. Pure torture.

I thought I would give that a try Ormster. I don't think the results were quite as expected......

On Thursday evening I set the alarm for 11 o'clock. Unfortunately I was so tired I had actually drifted off to sleep about an hour earlier. The alarm then went off and I had to get up to turn it off. Well you know how it is - I could not then get back to sleep.

In consequence I was late waking up the following day and so missed a vital business meeting. This resulted in me losing my job and as a result my wife has left me.

Orm, if you have anymore bright ideas, could I respectfully ask you to shove them where the sun does not shine?

You must avoid rookie mistakes and go to sleep before the alarm rings.

I think you will find young Ormster, that the sun does indeed shine in Antartica, and, as A-ha pointed out in 1986, the Sun Always Shines on T.V. However mccolleague it does not shine up your (blackadder music intervenes at the appropriate moment).

This is the point that parusski's birthday goes wrong. He just can't understand why, after 4058 hits and 578 posts(unfreakinbelievable) no one has answered the question correctly.

nate25. I know you are a little slow (in addition to being the great great grandson of an incompetent oaf who was responsible for the death of an entire town), but have you REALLY not worked it out yet??

This is Steiner's hilarious game. You can never get the right answer because a second after you post it, the time has changed. Don't you see?? Now, get yourself over to the G7YPBW thread and get working on the greatest game in history.

Just for the record, Warspite1, the message Nelson wanted to send was 'Nelson confides that every man will do his duty'. But, as every good englishman knows, he changed it because the words 'Nelson' and 'confides' weren't in the code book and would have had to have been spelled out.

Warspite1

The story of the replacement of "confides" with "expects" is indeed something every Englishman should know.

I must confess however that I have never heard that Lord Nelson wanted to use his name rather than England. I find it rather extraordinary that this would be so. Can I ask you for your source please?
