merciful alarm clock?

[DaSwede]

Have any of you tried the zen alarm clock?

[squarebear]

I couldn't see any prices on that site. That always puts me off.

[DaSwede]

Different finish, different price - so you have to click the clock of your choice to see the cost, and there's a separate link for shipping costs, so that seems okay. And the site has been around for a long time, so everything seems alright. But it's still a lot of money and that's why I'm asking.

Welcome,biddies and hippies, to the AB sleep laboratory. I did buy that clock, but the alarm doesn't seem to have gone off yet http://i50.tinypic.com/25ricsg.jpg

No, definitely hasn't https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7acdMaOHbqs

There are some human snooring videos on YT that... well all I can say is thank god I don't have any grandchildren who film me close up when I'm sleeping...!

My youngest half sis and her boyfriend are buying a golden retriever. There's a litter that was born Nov.1 but the only problem is sis and boyfriend are going to Singapore for Christmas and New Year's and to bring sis' mother home, as she's afraid of flying alone. (She's staying with my eldest half sis for the time being.) They won't be back till Jan.14 and that's a bit late for bringing a new puppy home, or isn't it? It'll be 2,5 months by then and so a couple of precious weeks of potential bonding will be lost. If anyone has an opinion on this, please share it. Would it be better if they wait till the next litter?

Robi check your email (again) please, thanks.

A sleep lab. sounds just great. I have booked in for the next month or two

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz 'Do not disturb until Spring'

[Robinia]

yes, just the thing for me too...will we get room service?

[Jude123]

Hiya. I've arrived and to prove it I'm here!! Do we get en suite here?

[swedeheart]

Jude it's INDOORS which makes a nice change from the facilities at so many of our biddy homes, but I have to admit it's down the corridor. A loooong ways down the corridor. On the other hand, I believe Tarquin is doing some work there, isn't he, Robinia, to enable us to stay in touch with each other at all times http://i45.tinypic.com/rj2l3b.jpg

Room service, well, it's more like B&B actually... http://i47.tinypic.com/sdk29y.jpg

You should all follow Lottie's lead, she's not complaining! Now behave while I go email the hippie again.

Morning all - thanks for email swedie. Don't need a sleep laboratory, I seem to sleep very well at the moment. It's the tablets for my itching (which has almost gone) that make me sleep. Lovely it is.

Lovely sunny day here, am off to post xmas cards, lawd alone knows how much they'll be.

[Robinia]

morning...mmm, I see you're all getting into the spirit of the sleep trials then..

I didn't used to mind mornings but nowadays I seem to have a ton of bricks fall on me when I open my eyes.... but at least they're dry bricks, unlike those poor people in Cumbria....

erm, toast's a bit soggy and what's this on it? Doesn't taste like Lurpak to me...that hippy'll be finding a frog in his bed tonight if he's not careful.

[netibiza]

Bring the brekky to me Vinny, I love cold soggy toast.

Posted my xmas cards today, 15€, getting too bl**dy expensive.

[Jude123]

I shall be creeping in tonight about midnight so I'll try not to wake anyone if you promise not to set the alarm for an unearthly time. As long as I get to my sister's for my Saturday morning cuppa about 10 I shall be ok. I'm off to my local haunt to see what the entertainment is like.
Hope you all have a good, peaceful and pain-free weekend.
Off now to get my hair trimmed. See yer later 'gater(s)! xx

Evening, possums, this is 'broken english' signing in. It's my username on the hippie's drawing site, which I joined way back to be able to if not pursue him to the end of the earth then at least get a message through (through the PM system), as he has always been very skeptical about using his email application for actually receiving email;-) HIPPIE!!! I am most grateful that you have seen fit to reveal my username to the entire AB, pray tell what can I do for you in return? You don't see me advertising you were once a member of Die Wiener Sängerknaben and you still like to wear your sailor suit choir uniform to the pub on Saturdays, do you now;-) Little things like that, told in confidence... ;-)

Would you believe I'm actually contemplating asking a (swine jab related) question in B&S, haven't decided yet, I don't know if I'm strong enough and I'm not convinced the biddy colander will suffice;-) I'll say no more, you all know what I'm talking about.

Love all your piccies, I knew I'd like it here in the sleep lab. Jno's alarm kitteh doesn't look very merciful though:) I've had one of those, they don't know what mercy means and once you're up they go back to sleep (after having had their brekkies, of course). An ex workmate of mine had a cat who licked her eyelids open at four o'clock in the morning EVERY morning =:O
