do a few years in the forces and you will be able to sleep ANYWHERE!!

I fell asleep in one of the engine rooms on a frigate while i was a trainee Was laying on the inside of the ships hull while greasing a bit of the stabiliser linkage while the supervisor went for a fag, and it just was nice and warm, the perfect curve for laying on and quiet with ear defenders on and ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

To all those who say that they cannot go to sleep anywhere other than a bed.... I put it to you that that statement is the biggest load of bull I have ever heard. If a man can fall asleep in front of a nightclub speaker after having a few beers, I am sure an air bed in a tent in the middle of Northampton is a doddle!

Maria, just buy a pop tent, for 30 quid.

You take it out of the bag, throw it in the air, and it lands erected.

Then just leave it there if you cant be arsed to take it down again.

Strange bloke...

I've spent a total of 4 nights in a tent in my life and not slept a wink.

I've also stayed a couple of night's on people's settees and other such places and not slept a wink.
