I'm up! Work a standard 8.30-5pm day, but my little one decided to sneak in my bed this morning and has kept me awake for the last few hours by having his feet in my face!

I've not long been home from work, mostly work night shift 2300-0400 as that is the only time maintenance can be carried out without interuption on the rail system.

Give it up for the 9-5? :P

I wouldnt mind working 4am - midday... I mean when you're up, you're up? I dont feel any different.

The bugger would be trying to get to sleep at 7-8pm with daylight savings hours :
