I always stay up watching tv./on computer, pushing the hour I retire to bed, I ended up going to bed at seven of the clock - a.m., at the end of the holiday!
i used to do that when i was at school and college during the six weeks.

i remember i used to play about with my tv during the night and could get some really strange foreign channels as well as meridian, carlton and central - most of time i wouldn't be able to get them - i guess that was the start of my interest in tv presentation, the awareness that you got a different station and programmes depending on where you lived.

but i seem to do this nearly every weekend: go to bed at 1/2am and then it takes the rest of the week to recover as i inevitably get up at 11/12 the next day - i've been stuck in this pattern for years.

i'd love to have six weeks off work to do my own stuff now, i can't even remember what i did during all my time off at college (we'd get like 12 week holidays).

Came on line this morning read through this thread again and it made feel sleepy. so i went back to bed. I woke up about an hour ago, it was pitch black. That freaked me out a bit, for a moment i thought it was about 9pm.

I always worked during my summer holidays from school and college. I've worked since i was 14. The summer of 87 i had 3 jobs on the go. I think i'm overdue a 12 week holiday to do just funstuff.

I'm sure there's a filthy, disgusting and rude reply to that, but I'm too tired to think of it.

Don't old folk habitually fall asleep during the day ?

My experience of them is that they'll collapse in a chair after lunch, you'll be chatting away and within 15 minutes they've lost consciousness.

I don't think it's me.

That's because old peoples houses are always warm. Every old persons home i've been in has felt like a furnace. No wonder they doze off, it makes me feel drowsy. Or it's something in the tea.
