I’m going to be working nights every 6 weeks from now on and apart from the messing about with your body clock find the night...

    The first 24 hours of a change are the worst...once you’ve got that out of the way it’s not too bad....until you get to the end of nights. I tend to finish at 06:30 and in bed by 09:00, sleep until @13:00 then get up and go out and do something so I can eat/sleep at a ‘normal’ time. Nights are...

    Thanks for the welcome guys, I’ve read about half the thread so feel like I know most of you already. I appear to have a similarly silly sense of humour to most here. I’m Scottish, live in the south east and work in London in a fairly stressful job so find BG difficult to control when...
