I ask, you write 8

Thank you for all the stories. Some truly wonderful ones in the last lot. Now for the next question.

It was the same thing every morning. Jo would slam down the alarm, turn over to the other side and go back to sleep. And invariably, she would curse herself for turning up late for work. Today however, she had a fool-proof plan. What was it?
