TOMO 25,042 Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 IF YOUR ONLY DOING A BIT OF LAMPING FOR AN HOUR OR TWO. DO IT THE OTHER WAY ROUND. GO OUT BEFOR YOU GO TO WORK. THATS WHAT I YOUSED TO DO IF I WAS JUST GOING OUT LOCAL FOR HALF A DOZEN . GO TO BED AT 9- 10 PM .JUST SET MY ALARM FOR 4 am GET UP HAVE AN HOUR ON THE LAMP ROUND THE DOORS. THEN OFF TO WORK.

Bosun11 537 Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 I had a job where I finished at 12, great shifts for lamping, I was on this shift for a week at a time, once every 6 weeks, out every night on that shift, bloody great, and a couple of rabbits to show for it Gotta agree Dox, worked shifts for 20 years, tried the 9-5, hated it! Finish at 11, half hour home, change an back out for a shine, feel more active an 'keen', have the better nights out then. It kills me waitin round to go out......7-8pm sittin round, gear an dog ready, ain't interested in the telly, time goin slower an slower, curtain twitchin, lookin at sky an trees, drivin me bird (partner) nuts!! Too much anticipation, too much hype, never seem to be the best nights As for sleep when I get in, yep, exactley the same as most of yer........shite! Two things i've learned...... 1. Unwind (an warm up) for a good half hour or so before tryin to sleep..... 2. keep me bird sweet before hand, coz a nice gentle 'wake up' in the small hours, helps me sleep like a baby Quote Link to post Share on other sites
