Better Idea
A rather ingenious collegue of mine, many years ago, came up with a very good solution for all those sleepyheads with hangovers, drug habits, babies and other things that make you want to kip during the working day.
It was called the Head Hammock (tm) and comprised a length of fabric (soft toweling preferably) and a set of compact, yet strong, industrial suction cups (like those used by plate glass handlers) hooked on at either end.
This nifty device could be smuggled into the loo and the suction cups attached to the (invariably) laminated chipboard walls either side.
You could then sit on the pot, and lay your sleepy head in the comfy hammock.
Snoring was the only giveaway.
He never went into production with this idea, but I thought it was a winner.
You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.
