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).

That's Hyma as ever with the incisive social observation

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.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

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.
