Why do you post in the middle of the night?

[Cowley]

The ultimate thread bounce...
We just drove 750 odd miles back from the south of France.
Mrs C and I shared the driving and took turns sleeping.
But I’m still absolutely wired...
I know I should be sleeping but the bucketful of strong coffee I drank at Fleet Services still doesn’t seem to have worn off and to be honest right now I’m not sure if I’ll ever sleep again...
Having looked on the forum though it seems like I’m not the only insomniac?

In my case a highly unusual for me week of working hours (9 days in a row, mainly at times I don’t normally work) combined with the earlier hot weather has *completely* screwed my sleeping pattern. I’ll be putting it right tonight with the aid of sleeping pills!

The other time I may be posting in the middle of the night is when working nights, but this is only nowadays 2 to 4 times a year.

I don't have a good sleep pattern and I've struggled to fix it because of how warm my house is plus I try to put together ideas of what to reply on the forums so I end up awake til 4/5am every night. I've engaged in a few separate forums since I've been on here too so there's a lot of notifications sometimes

Because I work nightshifts & I’m either on break or I’m bored with nothing doing.

I've very occasionally posted on here at around 3 to 4 AM, but that's only because I've had to get up ridiculously early to catch a 4 (something) AM train if I'm going somewhere interesting. So I usually just come onto here to waste some time before either the train is due or I'm due to leave the house!

I live in the USA so you guys may think it is the middle of the night but I am just going to bed or on my 4th bourbon or GandT or even IPA beer

Because I am just weird !
If its a school day ( Tues to Friday for me) I will be asleep by 19.45 (at the latest) and usually wake up at 01.00 am.
I then play games/read the papers etc and catch the 05.38 Southport to Moorfields Merseyrail train to start work for 7.00 am
(As I do my 37 hours over 4 days I have to work 4 long days per week , but its worth it to be off every Monday !).
