Radio 1. I fucking hate Chris Moyles, probably the worst person to ever wake up to.

I just can't be bothered to change it. Rolling Eyes

Mobile phone alarm (x3)
a normal alarm clock,
a pair of fighting teens about to kill each other,
a dog whining to go out,
the realisation that I haven't tumble dried school uniforms,
and smoke alarm going off because the toasters turned up too high. Confused

I too have multiple alarms.

First is the lights come on first, then Real Radio and then my mobile phone. In Winter, having the lights come on first makes you wake up feeling better for some reason.

Radio 4, plus two alarms set on my mobile phone at the highest volume and on vibrate... I still manage to sleep through it all thanks to niftily being able to 'snooze' my phone alarms whilst still asleep.

I wish I could sleep that deep. I wake up as soon as I hear the electrical current trickle through to my DAB radio. No kidding. It makes a little thud. Laughing

Whichever radio station I can get reception on, for some reason my radio alarm is apalling, usually Kerrang which is ok as I like it.

Also set all 5 alarms on my phone at 10minute intervals because it's that hard to get me up, mostly just annoying tunes but first one is Goldfrapp - A&E because it's gradual so doesn't scare the crap out of me when it goes off.

We used to rely on that too. Now she's older she sleeps in longer than us (unless its the weekend! Sad ).

Dont bother with an alarm clock, I'm usually awake about 6-630 every morning without fail. Lay in til about half 7 then start to get my arse in gear! Thumbs Up
