2 hours ago I could barely keep my eyes open, now I'm wide awake!
And no, I've not been drinking coffee

You must have been one of the few who got to see THE GENERALISTS video linky, sounds like that woke a few people up...

I'm like that. I just need a quick forty winks (no, not that kind) between 9:30 and 10:00 and then I'm awake for hours.

A couple of nights ago Mrs Parr went to bed and I started watching an interesting program about the septics trying to lunch a space vehicle by detonating nuclear bombs underneath it every two seconds. But I fell asleep in the middle of it and woke up shortly after it had finished at about 11.30ish. I went to bed feeling tired but couldn't sleep until about 2.30am

This happens quite often. I feel really tired before I go to bed but can't sleep once I'm in bed.

I saw that; brilliant it was too, and Mrs Tester went off to bed. Why don't women find this stuff interesting?

The theory of using nukes to power space craft is an old science fiction thing, but can't for the life of me remember the author. Missed the programme though, what channel was it on?

According to wikipedia it was Stanislaw Ulam from the manhatten project
