About a decade ago, I had a morning meeting in Manchester, of which I had been stressing about the night before. Fortunately, it went well and I decided that I'd have time to have a little nap at home in Warwickshire before heading to work in Birmingham that evening.
I caught the next XC service and drifted off shortly after departure.
I remember waking up shortly before Wolverhampton and then drifted back off.
Unfortunately, I found myself waking up departing Newton Abbot.
My boss wasn't impressed when I called to explain but he saw the funny side and mocked me for the following months after.
The worst thing was getting back to Birmingham just before midnight, wide awake, hungry and my wallet £45 lighter due to having to get a taxi to my village.
Never happened (that badly) since.
