Yep! I like that one - good choice of framing also. Nice to hear that no Herons were harmed in the making.

Chris, not worked nights before, but have had silly early start jobs .. Sleeping in the day will be fun with Harry & a new born down stairs! Lol ..

It takes some doing without those distractions so I wish you the very best of luck!

I have been considering night shift issues. With a baby it's dead easy, in a few years when she's mobile and no baby gates I can see her wanting to wake mummy or daddy up as they sleep off a night.

It's the constant people telling me that I look knackered that gets wearing Hard not to really.

Some good news for me though, they've put my billboard back up! I grabbed a few piccies and a small slice of it too

I don't get why people are like that, a night shift is no different to a late or early, as long as I treat it like a normal working day it's all good. I.e. up an hour or so before leaving home and then sit up a bit in the morning watching what was taped from telly before bed, there are people who do it wrong and try to have a normal daytime routine in the afternoon then work the shift and are ready for bed at it's end.

That's fine, but it's the going back to normal daytime on the weekends that kills me.

There is a photowalk in London today? Never been to one but always been curious about those.

Cat nap it the first day until lunch time, ~3-4 hours sleep, then do the afternoon and go to bed at a normal time like midnight and I'm straight into the regular routine for a day shift.

Agreed on both parts here, doing a night shift is no different, sill normal working hours right? I've always though if i had the chance to i would work nights.

My current job has two shift one is from 9am until 5.30pm and the other is 12.30pm until 9pm, now the thing is the alternate them each day so monday we'll work 9-5.30 tues 12.30 - 9pm wed 0am-5.30 etc, for about 3 years i've been trying to get them to alternate the shifts each week rather than each day. If we go from a late **** one day into a ealy shift the next day we don't get home until 10-10.30pm and then have to be up at 6am the next morn to get ready for work.

I remember once i was either at college or work experience during the day, so gettin up at 6am and gettin home about 5pm, then going to work at 6pm and gettin home about 2/3am.

Did this for about 3 weeks straight, i was a la f***ed by the end

Working time directive states that you need to have 11 hours minimum from the end of one shift to the start of the next.
