Late Night Compers

I always comp mainly between midnight & 5am, and I notice that there is barely any chat on these boards in those times.

I was just wondering if anyone else is a late night comper like me? Sat up into the wee hours, plodding away at all the wonderful comps on here, dreaming about those big wins instead of tucked up in bed dreaming :D

Might be nice to chat to any other night owls, if indeed there are others out there! :beer:

    I'm the opposite - I normally start comping from about 5.30 or 6am

    I used to before my little one was born and at the newborn stage, but now he sleeps through the night.

    I do about an hour or two comping but like to be in bed by 1ish to make sure I get enough sleep before school run! :)
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    I've just been entering a few competitions tried to do the night time thing but can't seem to stay awake any tips.Maybe I should sleep all day then get up at night ha ha.I entered for a comp but missed one digit of my phone number it's because I'm tired think I will try this all night comping when haven't done anything in the day been up nearly 24 hours.Good idea though modems quicker at night and saves electric bill.

    I've been to bed and got back up as I can't sleep.

    At least I'm not working tomorrow.

    Hi I'm a late night comper - usually sitting up in bed getting back ache whilst my husband snores. I can't sleep till about 6 am then I have to wake up again to start the day just as I've dropped off. Late night comping doesn't seem to very lucky though - so far in the last 6 weeks I've won a book that hasn't arrived yet!

    Away for a few days soon with no internet access :eek:. Will have to pack my knitting :(
