Doing a Wilson Pickett

So Richard also asked how hard it is to get out of bed in the early hours of a dark and cold winter's night. Not surprisingly it is a bit of a shock. One moment you are cuddled up safe and warm in the lee of bum island...the next you are struggling into reluctant clothing, trying not to wake everyone, find the car keys, find the car, go back and get the correct keys for that car etc, etc, etc. No doubt there are some for whom there is a temptation to stay there in bed and silence the pager. However, I think we all resist that temptation. Needless to say, it is generally on these sort of shouts where our services are most urgently required.

By the way. The photo is of B on an evening exercise. Imagine how rough he looks at 'oh my God it's early' o'clock!
