how to make Charlie leap out of bed

[chanter1944]

Try this. It's 3 in the morning, and I'm listening to BBC Worldservice. A news bulletin comes on, and all of a sudden I hear, "The BBC Gaza correspondent Alan Johnston has been freed."

I didn't hear the next bit, as I was too busy *flying* out from under my blankets and straight across the room to get nearer the radio, and all-out squeaking "*Yes*!"

I have a major, major case of the warm fuzzies now. :D :D :D
