    Hello all,

    Stumbled upon this forum by chance. I'm an insomniac who by happy coincidence also works a lot of nightshifts. Spend a lot of my time cycling or hiking, mostly at night as I love the solitude and dark landscapes. Just something really calming being out and about while everyone else is sleeping. :)

    May I hang out here? I go through phases of not being able to sleep for one reason or another. It'd be nice to have someplace to go!

    ***…slides in…ooops, sorry.:P***

    Sometimes i just have periods of sleeplessness like this week. Just can’t switch off the grey matter.;)

    Being a night owl anyway doesn’t help. Thankfully i work mostly independent and can time my appointments after my timetable…with a little bit of tweaking.

    Actually i wanted to wait till post #5000 to slide in. But i’m just too impatient...

    Happy nights all around. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,799 ✭✭✭✭Ted_YNWA


    Hey BF, welcome.
