pauldunbar1234 I did, when I was a hospital porter. Married men with families used to fight to do the morning shift. Treble time... out of the way while their wives did the cooking... then home for the afternoon of eating and drinking.

r29ssy 'Not looking forward to the two night shifts'

I hated night shifts when I did them one week out of three. Plays havoc with your digestion and sleeping patterns.

I struggle sleeping past 3-4 hrs after a night shift , and after 2 days followed by 2 nights my body clock is all over the place .

The local OAP luncheon club is putting on a dinner for those with no family, and I have been roped into being a taxi, as I can drive a minibus due to having an older driving licence with the correct rights. No sherry for me until the evening I am afraid.
