Don’t know how rated it currently is by other people, but the sensation when you wake up on Saturday and in that half-awake state you realise that it’s the weekend is currently my absolute best sensation.

The other day I went to bed a little early, because I was totally knackered, and fell asleep almost immediately. When Mrs F came up a bit later I woke up, saw her standing there dressed and assumed I’d slept in and was late for work.

So not really an underrated sensation that, more a really unpleasant one.

Hate that really confused state you sometimes get from a very deep nap

Transformer hum is a good one.

I will take your word for it Dr Poirot!

That’s Dr Dr Poirot to you, pal.
