somebody has been shot dead by police and no-one is checking in.

Lawks. I cycle past Hampshire Police HQ every morning. I've checked my
rucksack for bullet holes. I'm OK, AFAICT.

Funny how with yesterday's query people were criticsed for asking/checking
in and funny how today they get criticised for *not* doing same ;-)

I woke up this morning if anyone is interested (very dangerous places,
beds first thing in the morning) ;-)

I'll be driving through London tonight on the way to Paris. Staying
overnight in Canterbury though.

whenever I fly anywhere I get an anxious call from my mum "give us a
ring to let me know you landed safely" (and not for any other mode of
transport for some reason) to which I reply; "If I don't, you 'll
probably know before me"

I thought no one cared enough to ask. Pity it's you that does

Statistically sleeping is more dangerous than cycling without a
h*lm*t. More people die in their sleep than cycling without a h*lm*t.
Perhaps we should be campaigning for sleeping h*lm*ts.

Definitely, after all 100% of sleep deaths are due to hypoxic or other
brain injury

8-10 people are killed each day on the roads. Should we just fill this group
up with 'are you OK' messages everyday?

Will these sleeping helmets infuse the brain with oxygen? :-)

100% of casualties were not wearing a helmet. Therefore helmets are >100%
effective. Furthermore, in a controlled study, 99 students didn't wear a
sleeping helmet, one did and there were no casualties, therefore they
are at least 10000% effective.

p.s. Where can I apply for my grant :-)

Dunno. But a useful side effect may be that they also reduce sleep
induced knee injury.

I hate to imagine how one of those could occur...

Look up "restless leg syndrome", otherwise treated by medications:

It can occur in conjunction with sleep apnea:

I like that! I always used to get that from my mum when I was away doing
silly things on rivers/up mountains/wherever. I always just said that if
anything really bad happened, she'd see it on the news 🙂
