What time do Phers generally go to bed on weekdays? Me and Mrs Grouch are usually tucked up by 9pm, watch a little telly and then lights off at 10pm.
Oh, how times have changed.

I am a very light sleeper and it's worse in the hot summer weather. Usually it'll be past midnight or even 1AM before I try and get my head down. And, alcohol depending, I'll be up between half 8 and 9 without the need for an alarm clock.

Exactly. If I get in at ten (although its usually later) I want of bit of time to myself before I go to sleep. Usually get to bed about 1.

Generally between 12:30am and 2am if I am working the next morning (usually getting up about 7.45 or 8). I'm permanently exhausted...

What he said - alarm goes off at 0600, but not normally up and about til 0700, then the 50+ miles to work. I'm so glad I have an understanding boss...! Having said that i'm never out of the office until 1830, and go to cadets twice a week as well, getting home between 2330 and 0000 - oh to have some time for me!

Last night - finished working at 3am, bed at 3:30am, alarm clock thrown against the wall at 5:45am, out the house for work at 6:30am.

Normally, bed between midnight and 1am, get up at 6am.

For some reason I always feel in need of a 'power nap' in the afternoon. Rarely get the chance though
