I didn’t like the early mornings. I had to get up at 4 o'clock, for a period, from Tuesday to Tuesday.

I had a small area here (gestures) because there were 30 people down there (gestures).

I used to get up, and this bloke comes out and I did that (gestures nodding to sergeant) and then I went straight back to bed!

The man at the top, he came up and went “GET UP!”

I only did it once!
