Dr Neil Stanley, of the British Sleep Society, said not everybody needs a lot of sleep.

"There have been a number of people who have been famous for being short sleepers, most famously in our time Margaret Thatcher, who was renowned for only four hours, and before that people like Napoleon and Hitler.

"None of those was particularly large. But on the other side is Winston Churchill, who famously had his two hour nap in the afternoon, but also did not sleep very much during the evening, and cannot be said to have been a slender gentleman."

dun tell me the second last paragraph is consoling, as much as Margaret Thatcher, Napoleon and Hitler arent fat, but they're pretty petite. i wouldnt fall under tt category:( i wouldnt be like Churchill (no offence, but i rlly dun wanna be like him physically. )=)

so, i should rlly catch up on slp, chase me offline at 12 yeah if you see me on msn... rawr.
