What time do you get up in the morning?

[Rod Marsh]

Mondays and Fridays I work from home, so up at 7.45. Hit the gym, home for 9ish to log on. Tues/Wed/Thur up at 4.15, leave the house at 5, drive in to london and at my desk in the docklands just after 6am .

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

It depends - Mrs. Sock is a nurse so her shifts impact my sleep.

If she isn't working I am up around 6/6.30
If she is on a day 5/5.30
If she is working a night and won't be home until 8am .... 7.45

The best thing about being retired is getting up at anytime I want to, some mornings I'm up at 6am for a swim followed by my FULL English others it is a more leisurely 8am. After 30+ years of getting up at silly o'clock or going to bed at silly o'clock it is lovely.

How long does the drive home from the Docklands take? Guessing a fair bit longer depending on what time you leave.

My wife works at the RSCH, so the alarm goes off at 4.45am. She starts at 5.30 every week day, so I get up at the same time to do packed lunches, have breakfast, watch TV for a bit etc. Get my eldest son out of bed at 6 - he's out the door at 6.55 to get the bus to school, then I get my youngest son up at 7 and get him sorted for school. Leave home at 8.15, drop him off & get to work for 8.45. Start at 9am.
Weekends we get a lie in until 7....before heading off to football & cricket training / matches.

 

[Kuma]

If a 10am start then up 7:30, bus at 8:15, second bus at 9:30
If a 9am start then up at 6, bus at 6:55, second bus at whenever the hell the traffic allows me to.

I only do it 3 days a week now. You just get used to it.

 

[Dorset Seagull]

up at 5.15am, gym kit on and out the door by 5.30am
Arrive Bristol 6.15, gym for an hour and 15mins followed by shower and in work by 8.

That's probably a bit too much detail isn't it!

My lad's a personal trainer in a Bristol gym, which one do you go to?

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Whenever I want, now I'm retired. I worked for 50 years so I've earned that choice.
When I was working, it was 6am.

 

[Bognor Bystander]

Usually 7 days a week it's 7am (when the dog signals it's breakfast time) ...
