I mean I am a shift worker and my body doesn't know what it is doing half the time, but the hours you keep wow! dare I say it I know the older we get the less sleep we need, but to be still chatting on the boards late at night then first on the morning I doft my cap good lady!

 

thank you...i think! lol

i've never needed much sleep, i dread to think what i'll be like when i get older!

 

I refute the idea that you need less sleep as you get older. When young I used to manage very well on four or five hours, but these days six minimum and preferably seven. The days that we have our main meal at midday(traditional here) the afternoon is wasted as a bit of a nod goes down quite well.

 

Ooh thanks for the caramel latte Ak!
right, off to do some exercise, see you all in a bit, have a good rest of the morning! View attachment 5264

 

Morning all

Cloudy but dry here. As far as the sleep debate goes, I find the older I get I still sleep roughly the same number of hours, I just wake up more frequently.

 

I have a different perspective on the sleep debate as I'm epileptic and if I get over-tired, I run a higher risk of a stay in Jersey General for a couple of nights.

 

Thanks for coffee Ak

I agree with you OFH - I need far more sleep than when I was of "party age"

 

Where's mine

 

What would you like Millens?

 

Wasn't Mrs Thatcher who used to get by with about 4 hours sleep per night My good lady was actually ahead of herself when she moved to France as she always has a snooze in the afternoon When I am on nights I try and snooze in the afternoon but it does not always work out like that!

 

It was the Iron Lady herself. Not very encouraging when you think what's happened since!

 

Right, that's me out of here for a while, I can't put work off any longer lol. See you later, have a fun afternoon

 

with you on that one Frenchie ,I need more sleep now than I did 20 years ago, maybe its because im working harder!!!

 

There is the old Servicemens adage, sleep and eat when you can, cause you don't know when the next time will be. Saying that if I snooze in the afternoon at the weekend it spoils my night time sleep But the wife could have 3 hours plus in the afternoon then always sleep at night Yes I am envious

 

Well i generally only sleep when i am tired which is why i end up awake till the small hours of the morning. But i have been known to survive on as little as 2 hours and be fine the next day.

 

I could not do that even when I was 20
