I guess this is the morning habit of someone on an hourly rate?Originally posted by rootsnall View PostGet up, 5 mins for teeth clean, shower, shave. 5 mins to get dressed. 2 mins to pick up a banana and something to drink and I'm out the door. A total of 15 mins tops. You can gather your senses and check for shaving cuts etc once you are in work and the clock is ticking.Older and ...well, just older!!Comment

Mainly someone trying to avoid morning traffic. Hourly or daily, if I'm in work 15 mins earlier then I'm out the door 15 mins earlier.Originally posted by ratewhore View PostI guess this is the morning habit of someone on an hourly rate?Comment

Crikey, I take about 4 mins just to clean me teeth, probably close to 10 mins for a nice shower, 4 mins for a shave, and at least 15 mins for breakfast (oh, I clean my teeth after eating) They look likeOriginally posted by rootsnall View PostGet up, 5 mins for teeth clean, shower, shave. 5 mins to get dressed. 2 mins to pick up a banana and something to drink and I'm out the door.

. Oh, then it's contacts, eye spray and moisturise time.
I need to speed up a little. I hate rushing in the morning but this morning I was out of bed at around 7:40 and didn't leave until 9!!!
I should have been a women. Having said that, Norrah takes 30 mins only and that includes makeup. Obviously she only needs a thin layer

Alarm goes at 6:00 usually crawl out at 6:30. SSS, sort the dogs, breakfast and coffee, and out the door by 7:00 to be in the office by 8:30."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

Yes, TFM! Saturday it chucked it down by us but Sunday was relatively clear and sunny so I was expecting a good drive this morning. Up at 5:30am and left the house at 6:00am. The A5 was pretty good but a few flakes started to drift down north of Frankfurt. Hit the A45 and it was a blizzard, down to 30km/h at times and that stretch took a good couple of hours. The A1 was pretty clear so got into work jst before 10:00am (top speed today was a paltry 190km/h) An improvement of 1 hour over last week to travel 300km.Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostWas there snow in Deutschland this morning?“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment
