I'm on my 4th coffee, taken 2xProPlus and I'm still feeling knackered. Any suggestions? Sleep is not an option as I'm at client site today, but should be leaving by about 2ish. However, have a 2 hour drive so need to be perky then too.

Don't worry, your subconcious will wake you up after 5 to 15 minutes, and you won't feel sleepy afterwards.

Amphetamine Sulphate it is then. Should make for an interesting project review meeting at 11.00. With any luck, I should get it wrapped up by 11:01.
Just tried the power nap option in trap 2. It wasn't very comfortable and way too smelly. Got a little worried when the bloke in trap one sat down and it sounded like the Niagra Falls was coming out of his @rse. Felt like shouting out "Dodgy curry?", but decided "Release the seals" was more diplomatic.Illegitimus non carborundum est!Comment

A whole pack of Ex-lax. Might not cure your drowsiness but you sure aren't going to let your eyes close when a potential bowel explosion is close at hand...If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.Comment
