    You guys are such early birds! I do mine before and after uni, then when i get in from work (around 11.30pm). Only my mum knows I comp though so when my boyfriend comes round I have to work comping times around it haha

    I don't start mine until 8 or more likely 9pm as I'm useless in the morning, don't comp at work, go home, walk dogs, cook dinner, potter and before I know it the night is almost gone. This is one reason why my entry level is so low - by the time I sit down to do them I'm generally cream crackered :). I haven't entered any for a few days now as I'm a bit burnt out.

    If I am on a day off - I start around 10am and may do a few hours. On work days if I am in the office, it could be at any time during the day, Even if I get one or two done its worth it.

    I dont get up early to do comps - I like sleep too much :)

    On a weekday i start around 6pm (5pm on wed and Thurs as daughters are at cheer leading) but on a weekend i can start at half 7 and do bits through day when i have spare 5 mins. Finish work on Fri for 2 weeks so got plenty of comping time :D
    New start.... positive vibes
