Where's the weirdest place you have nodded off?

[BrickPoet]

on the bus

Every week in church when DS was a newborn.
"Now, let's bow out heads...."

I woke up to a little girl asking her mum why I had my eyes closed and her mum explaining that I was deep in prayer. Nope, just deep asleep!

Same! I find having my hair messed with (whether the kids were playing with it when they were little, or getting a cut) very relaxing!

Also fallen asleep in the cinema (one of the Lego movies.....very boring!), on the train, a plane and years ago on a friends sofa. Woke up 6am with a blanket on me and everyone else had gone to bed!

Every single time I get my lash extensions done. And in a camp chair amongst 10,000 people waiting for a band to start.

When having my legs waxed!

On the sofa in a colleague's office at work. We were having a chat about a project, he had to step out to talk to someone for 5 mins, and I just drifted off sat up on the sofa. Apparently he thought he should just leave me to it, so he went to work elsewhere and I had a lovely 30-minute snooze. Quite embarrassing.

In the Hacienda nightclub at a Ministry of Sound all nighter! It wasn't even drink or drugs, I was just totally knackered that day.

In an interview.

I made the mistake of asking the most boring man in the world what his job involved. I was out like a light.

Being stitched up after giving birth. I was very tired!!

I was in labour, and wanted to give birth before 6 am (any later and I knew I wouldn't be able to escape before late afternoon). Pushed a bit and didn't get anywhere. Midwife had a peek and said I wasn't fully dilated. I said that explained it, and settled down for a nap. 45 minutes later I woke up because somebody was screaming.

Yes, it was me.

Baby came straight out, with minimal effort. But as it was now 6:30 I couldn't get a morning discharge.

On the toilet, many times!

In an arena at a concert. It had been a long week.

Top deck of one of those sight seeing buses in New York. The busy nature of the holiday and time difference had caught up with me.

In a tent on a near concrete car park at the Le Mans race track with the sound of the cars racing in the background.

On the floor of Luton airport on the way home from the Le Mans trip. It was a bus trip and I don't sleep well (if at all) on a bus and we got to the airport about 12 hours before our flight home. I also read the whole of The Hobbit during this wait.

I used to regularly fall asleep while walking home from work in my late teens (I was often out late the night before a shift). I did the same route every day and often just closed my eyes and when I opened them again I would be much further along the road with absolutely no memory of walking any of it. The scariest time was when I had made it along two streets and crossed a road while doing this.

This is incredibly outing - but at a rugby match. Not as a one off either, fairly frequently. Thousands of noisy fans around me and I have a little nap.

While having root canal treatment. The dentist had to keep waking me as my mouth was closing every time I nodded off. Also whilst having a tattoo.

On a plane toilet, and during a leg wax. Possibly after that same endless and sleepless flight

My DH and I once attended a house party but we had just come back from a long haul and were both quite tired. The host had this huge bed like sofa right in the main living area where the party was happening, it was very loud, music and lots of people talking . we both laid down after a while cuddled up on the sofa and slept all throughout the party, when we woke about 2am, there were a few guests left drinking coffee and chatting quietly. Apparently we didn’t move the whole evening and guests even sat on the sofa around us! Felt very embarrassed!!

In the theatre twice, on the front row as well for one of them! On an absolutley rammed train in Japan and in the middle of a football match in a pub, I curled up on an empty bench and just passed out 😆

In a restaurant, having dinner with DH. To be fair to him, it was in the bone crushingly exhausting phase of early pregnancy. I was also on anti-sickness meds which made me quite drowsy. Still, not a high point.

I fall asleep on any transport which is quite embarrassing on buses or trains. OH knows as soon as I'm in the van and he starts driving I will nod off, as I talk in my sleep makes for an amusing journey for him!
like many others, I fell asleep in an MRI scanner but due to PTSD I jerk and twist a lot so had to have it done again!
I suffer badly from insomnia at night sleeping in bed is my idea of hell so it's not surprising I suppose I nod off anywhere and everywhere! my partner can go in the kitchen to get a cuppa when I get home from work when he comes back I am dead to the world!

In a nightclub with my head on the table. I was working a job which paid £££ for very little actual work but required a lot of travel and strange hours.

Had to leave that job due to exhaustion not long after.

Cinema watching the 5th Harry Potter the day it came out, think I was 18/19 and was/am a huge Harry Potter nut. I was very unwell with tonsillitis (suffered monthly with it at the time so I used to just try get on with it) so had been to work, then cinema and fell asleep. I was so gutted. Ended up going hospital on way home and being admitted due to my throat being nearly closed up....maybe should have prioritised that instead of Harry Potter!

@00deed1988 - mine was similar except it was the premiere of HP and the Philosophers Stone at Leicester Square with all of the celeb pomp etc. DH was involved with some of the advertising and we had comp tickets and I fell asleep after about 15 mins. In my defence I was in the run up to my final exams to become a chartered surveyor, so if I wasn't studying or working, sleep was my next priority!

I fell asleep during Shrek the musical. Not sure why it gets such acclaim. Usually I love theatre! I had my daughter on my knee which always relaxes me & missed the whole 2nd half
