Think Geek (http://www.thinkgeek.com/homeoffice/lights/aef3/?pfm=Search&t=good morning sir clock) has the clock, too, but currently only the "Madam" version is in stock.
Was yours from Thinkgeek made of plastic? Because I had heard that the first models were plastic and then they switched to wood, so possibly your friend got the original version?
I got the Madam version from Voco as a gift last year and I wish I could have gotten the Sir version. The madam version is still absolutely lovely, of course, but its good morning phrases include references to shopping, fashion, and dieting - nothing I want to think about when just waking up!
Oh, really? I got the Sir version because it was the only one in stock on ThinkGeek and now I totally don't regret it. xD
Mine is still quite erratic, though - it tends to go off again an hour after it's meant to, which I don't mind because I set mine to an hour before I need to get up, but then sometimes it will go off three or four times in a row and won't stop till I turn the alarm off altogether. O_O
IDK, it's been taken back and forth on the train in a suitcase a few times, so it might just have got a little bumped about. xD I don't mind, it's an awesome alarm to wake up to (I used to use my phone alarm and after a couple of months the sound of it made my skin crawl *shudders*).
