    Ok..I'm 5 hours ahead of most of you and suddenly seeing loads of people positing at all times of the night/ morning from home

    What do you all be doing if not sleeping?

    I've already had breakfast 2 hours ago and am heading out for the day.

    I'm nocturnal. I also thought this thread was about posters falling off walls in the middle of the night :D

    We stay up all night bulk buying tickets for events and then we sell them onto people at a higher price!

    I am delighted with the increase of nighttime posters. I have a tiny human doing the hokey cokey in my womb so haven't slept properly in months!

    I keep a small herd of alpacas who are currently going through a season of being in heat.

    They will only do the sexy time during the middle of the night (as that is late evening back in their naive countries). So I had stay up and supervise.

    Picking up discarded rubber johnnies from the meadow, and putting them in the bin, and wiping makeup off the females all morning.

    Insomnia, although I was only lurking last night or this morning. I got exactly 0 minutes sleep, so work today will be good. I've just started and my eyes are falling out of my head.

    I probably look hungover with the bloodshot eyes on me, but I had nowt.

    Don't sleep much.

    Bed for 2, awake again at 7.

    Dunno if that fits in the timeframe you're thinking of.

    My dear old fellow-nightbird - there's a clue in the name:
    It's called "After Hours" for a reason. :-)
