    Evening all

    I hope your mother is ok and that you feel better too. My Mum had to go to A&E on Saturday. On Friday she was on the sofa and she couldn't move and was barely coherent, I thought she'd had a stroke at first but she kept saying 'I'm fine'. I had to leave to go to work so sent one of my brothers round, by then she seemed better. On Saturday she seemed better but was in agony. Her leg turned a vicious shade of red and was swollen, turns out she's had a severe reaction to a bite of some kind. Thankfully the antibiotics are taking hold, but it's going to be a while until it heals. Must run in the family we all have bad reactions to bites (you can have that one for free :rotfl: )

    Belated happy birthday to Miffie :dance: and hugs to those that need them :)

    Sory to hear about your mum PD. Hope she's better soon.

    I'm off to walk the dog close to the London Surrey border. if he blows over the border in this wind , I may not be back in time for Christmas! :eek:

    OMG this so explains a lot - this explains such a lot


    QUOTE=Jelly Biactol;64079379]It's called Bimodal Sleep, and very common in earlier times: people would go to sleep when the Sun went down (candles being expensive), then wake up about 1am or 2am, and did some paperwork, prayed, satt up and talked to each other, or did what a lot of grown-ups still do in bed:o (I once worked on an 18th-century diary, and a lot of the diary entries where for what we could call the middle of the night); then sleep again till sunrise. It was really only the advent of cheap electric lighting that people began to change their natural sleep patterns and 'defy the Sun' as it were.
    Remove artificial lighting and time stimuli (clocks etc), and people will pretty soon revert to the 'natural' two-sleep pattern - there has been research done which proves this.

    Thanks to you wonderful Peeps, I've managed to get enough Chips to last me through the year. I just want to thank you all for all your posts this last year. I've been lurking for over a year and I have learnt so much.
