It is indeed, and sleeping seems at the moment to be one of my favourite pastimes! I'm definitely a night owl though, and spent most of my 42 years of working life starting work at the (to me) ungodly hour of 8.15am.

"Sandancer

Sandancer (or Sanddancer) is a colloquialism used to describe those who come from the town of South Shields, Tyne and Wear, England. Residents of South Shields are often referred to as Geordies, this is incorrect as Geordie only refers to people from Newcastle upon Tyne.

The origins of the term are hotly contested, and they are many theories as to where the term comes from, but very little in the way of hard facts.

There are written accounts dating back to the 1850s describing the skill of the locals 'Dancing on the sand' whilst helping free ships that had become stuck on the beach.[citation needed]

Another popular theory is that it is derived from the term 'Sans Danger', an oblique reference to the town's history of smuggling and contraband of French origin.[citation needed]

Sandancer is considered by some to derive from the large number of Bangladeshi, Yemeni and people from other parts ofAsia who moved to the region between 1900 and 1920. Others claim this dates back as far as Roman times, as the first inhabitants of Arbeia were Syrian boatmen from the Tigris.[citation needed]

Others believe the term derives from a 1930s music hall act, Wilson, Keppel and Betty, which featured a "Sand dance", though as the act was never performed in the North East, it seems unlikely.

Sandancer is now a label that many people in South Shields are proud to identify with.[citation needed]"
