Now, both me and Mr Bin have had the last two weeks off.
As such we now go to sleep at about 1:00 and wake up at 9:00.
Most people I know find that after a certain amount of time off work / being on the dole, their body clocks slip to a similar time.

So why does the world need us all to get up early, no one likes it and it's clearly not natural.

That and I don't want to go back to work next week.

If I've got a night in, I'll be in bed by 10:30 these days. Read for a bit, fall asleep, then up at 7-ish.

That said, I'm quite used to having my sleep patterns disrupted and it doesn't bother me so long as I can catch up in a couple of days. And I can get over jet lag in a day.

Yes Kaol, I suppose I am odd!

At AC/DC. Damn. I got back into town yesterday, ran into a madman I know at my local, and went to a strip club. He was waiting on a client who never showed. Much drink and jet lag. Was worth it, though. But no Angus! Heard that it's a great show this time around.

Get them to spell 'lose' (the verb). If any of them use a double o, then shoot them.

Some of them are far better than me at spelling and I give them words like illustration and accommodation.

Some of them are still on the first 100 words.
So words like house and apple.

They had millennium and necessary last term.
