Harrison was having trouble getting to sleep one night recently and kept getting up to talk to Alison.
After trying to tell him to relax, think of nice things and various other suggestions to get him to go to sleep, Harry had pushed Alison's patience to the limit.
"Look, just lie there and count to two thousand", she told him with a tiny hint of malice in her voice.
This did the trick and she didn't see him again that night. However....
When she went into his room in the morning to wake him for school, he casually rolled over, and with just a touch of a smirk on his face, said, "...one thousand, two hundred and thirty eight; one thousand, two hundred and thirty nine..."
