because he feels most like doing it then!

Is it cause he's old and old people get up really early?

it's true that some old people don't sleep as much. But I think he'll have decided he's going to do it that day, and then just wants to get on with it. It's a man thing.

lemongrass: I asked him what he sees as a lie in, he said 9am, 9am is my early start

I am a late riser too.

I only get up early for holidays

Mornings are evil. lol.
