Despite all my best efforts I cannot get out of the house on time
I get as much ready as I can the night before - kettle full, teapot ready, cereal in bowls, lunches made, bags packed, school uniforms ready, etc. - I get up at six(ish) and get myself ready fairly swiftly.
Yet despite all this we still consistently fail to get out of the house on time. And the later we leave, the longer the journey across town takes - If we leave at 7.30 it takes 15 mins, 8.00 it takes 20+ mins, any time after 8.00 and it will be 30+ mins.

Wake the kids up by screaming, "get in the fucking car."
All other methods will be useless.

60% of the time, it works every time.
