Ha ha - that's funny! 
I can't compete for this week's award but I certainly should have won one 30 years ago ...
I went out with my mates on a Sunday evening and it turned into a late one ... After the pubs shut, we went back to some student dive and carried on partying until about 02:30, playing Risk and Backgammon, listening to music, and watching repeats of Bilko and The Young Ones.
Eventually, I staggered home and got into bed at about 03:15.
My alarm went off at 07:00 and I dragged myself downstairs. For some reason, my parents seemed to be having a lie-in. No time to hang about ... I forced down a breakfast and half a mug of tea, then power-walked to the factory I was then working at (just round the corner from dave r, it turns out!).
The industrial estate was uncharacteristically quiet - there wasn't a soul in sight - and all the units still had their shutters down.
My hangover was awful. I decided that I'd much rather be sleeping it off at home than working in a busy factory for 10 hours.
And then I remembered why we had partied so hard the previous night ... today was a Bank Holiday Monday!
My annoyance only lasted about 5 minutes as I jogged home to go back to bed. I got back just as my parents were getting up and they thought I was just getting home from the pub. There was much laughter when I explained what had happened!
I went back to bed and slept until mid-afternoon.
