      I just had one, unless you mean a holiday where I get to work constantly for a month, its the weekends where I've been missing out on sleep

        Couple of days on my own in a quiet house normally do it for me. Pity that only seems to occur for 1 day every year.

        (I did fake a trip away last year for a few days and went and stayed in a hotel 3 miles from my house)

          I feel like that now (long commute) and offspring number 2 is due in only 5 weeks.

          I'm in for a whole world of sleep deprived pain.
          Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

            What I hate is waking up after a good solid 8 hours and still feeling like you've been up for 24.
            Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

              Earplugs and kip on the sofa. Seriously.
              While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                On a Monday morning is the worse. That sense of doom for an impending week and the fact you're so knackered you know you're not giving 100%. Luckily 70% seems good enough for most clients.
