    Is it just me or does everyone sleep so much at the weekend, I can go to bed about 1/2/3am in the mornings and still be up for 9/10 sometimes earlier, when I hear people who don't get up until after 2/3pm that's the whole morning wasted, I do go to bed drunk and still get up early, does everyone like their sleep or do you get up early?


    I like getting up early myself esp. without hangovers lol :)

    If I'm drinking the night before, i'll proberly be up early. Mainly because my body won't allow me to sleep. But if i haven't been drinking then yeah, I generally get up around 12:00pm maybe 12:30pm on the weekend

    I agree, sleep is a waste of a good weekend, that's why I don't go to bed till the early hours of Sunday morning and your brand new for Tuesday. :P

    It is amazing how long a weekend day seems when you are up at 9 instead of 12. You can get so much done.

    I sleep the same hours all week thru! Staying in bed of a Sat morn is a waste of time off....unless you have a molly in the bed with you, then I don't get out til work on a Monday!!!

    Generally it's the weekend is the only time i get a good snooze...

    Got to be up early in the mornings during the week...

    Usually can't get to sleep during the week... just eventually nod off around 1 - 3...

    I get very little sleep during the week, the most I can manage is about 4 to 5 hours, so when weekends come around I am somewhat happy to sleep in.

    Usually, wake up still drunk on one of the days anyway. Although I have noticed I am waking up now most weekends at around 9, but I usually stay in bed, stick on a dvd and just enjoy the relaxation of knowing I don't have to get up and rush out the door. Sometiems I nod off again too. :)

    "Sleep is a load of me bollix" Dr. Bill says. "It's as close to being dead as you can get - and you've plenty of time for that later. Sleep for as little as possible".

    When Dr. Bill was a youngfilla he used to sleep for only 4 minutes a day.

    Also, when you get up don't forget to tell yourself in the mirror how marvellous you are.

    Bill knows what's what, so you listen up.

    You only appreciate it though when you're working a 9-5 job and the weekend is when you get to do stuff that's not work-related. During the week by the time you get home from work, all the shops are closed and it's dark outside so there's little to do except watch TV. If you're unemployed, or a student, or on shift work then you get to do non-work stuff outside of the weekend, so it's not quite so big a deal.

    When I was younger I could sleep for Ireland. Saturdays and Sundays were for rolling over and sleeping till midday (or dinnertime if I'd been out till 5am).

    Not so much now. I still like my sleep, but I'm usually awake by roughly 9am and once I get up to take a piss or whatever, I'm up. I start to feel uncomfortable and bothered if I stay lying in bed for very long. Same even when I'm hungover...

    I didn't go to bed till about 2:30am lastnight finishing up an assignment and still I managed to wake up at 6:30am. I can sleep in late when I know I have nothing to do an no where.

    Used to be a late sleeper until I had kids. Now I can't really lie in too late even if I have the chance to. You lose so much of the day by staying in bed too late, especially in winter.
