This used to be such a popular thread - where is everyone?
Or are you all 'going right through the night'?

Hi Rufus! Good to hear from you again. Lots of people on here thought you had gone walkabouts.

Mollygo Tue 30-Mar-21 13:58:16

Rufus2 we’ve missed you too, or I’ve been looking on the wrong threads.

Rufus2 Tue 30-Mar-21 13:55:04

It's good to know there are people out there, when all around are sleeping

Otherwise known as "Guardian Angels" grin

Just pleased that this popular forum has resurfaced to meet a need!

Lollin Tue 30-Mar-21 09:54:29

I too wondered what had happened. I must admit to either being too desperate to message in the early hours so just look to see if I am all alone or resist going on in case I might just be about to dose.

Haha, sorry about that, it was your turn of phrase and my lack of sleep.
Lots of us pleased to have the night owls back so thanks again.

I haven’t posted on any threads recently (personal problems) but having started to read posts again, I too have noticed FC missing.

Kim19 Tue 30-Mar-21 06:49:10

Think FC's posts are thoroughly recognisable.

Nana3 Tue 30-Mar-21 06:20:56

ixion are you FC ?
Just a thought.

Nana3 Tue 30-Mar-21 06:17:14

A blackbird is singing near my window and drowning out early morning traffic noise, don't think I'll get back to sleep now.

Savvy Tue 30-Mar-21 04:56:09

I'm here too! It's almost 5am and I'm just about to head off to bed as it's starting to get light outside.

Mollygo Tue 30-Mar-21 04:34:40

I’m usually awake, but I’ve been trying not to look at my phone in the middle of the night.
I also wondered about FC. Hope she’s OK.

Elizabeth1 Tue 30-Mar-21 03:10:25

I need my sleep? Good night ?

ixion Tue 30-Mar-21 03:09:34

Last time I followed this thread, some people recommended Pukka 'Night Time' tea (bags).
So, in desperation tonight, I am drinking this instead of my usual mug of coffee. (Just don't ask what I have been eating to go with it?)
I will report back in due course!

Oopsadaisy1 Tue 30-Mar-21 02:46:37

I wish I was sleeping, hungry DD (who gets hungry at 1.30am?) ferreting around in the fridge, went back to bed and then the dog had to be let out, they are both fast asleep now.........grrrr.

ixion Tue 30-Mar-21 02:35:05

I don't visit very often, but have noticed your absence for a while! Hence my question - I know it's not 'my' thread?.

NotSpaghetti Tue 30-Mar-21 02:03:20

I've been working till nearly 10.30 so feel quite awake still!

Nicegranny Tue 30-Mar-21 01:27:05

I’m here in bed with a pile of books next to me and not one of them is holding my interest.
This is early for me as my sleep went to pot over the last 6 months and lm making a proper effort to get back on course.
Hopefully I will feel sleepy soon very sleepy ?

crazyH Tue 30-Mar-21 01:14:40

I’m here - watching GN (Graham Norton)

Redhead56 Tue 30-Mar-21 01:08:05

I noticed night owls missing often just follow the thread wondered where everyone went.

mokryna Tue 30-Mar-21 00:22:56

That’s true, it’s been quite some time since she last posted. I hope she alright.

Blossoming Tue 30-Mar-21 00:03:00

I haven’t seen FC around for a few days, I hope nothing is wrong. She may just be taking a break.

polomint Mon 29-Mar-21 23:09:11

I wished this thread was open in theearly hours of this morning. I was awake at 3am and had not fell asleep since I went to bed. Somehow I was too warm, 15 degrees it was and my mind was in overdrive. Have taken a milky drink and reading a book before I go to bed tonight

Kim19 Mon 29-Mar-21 23:05:53

Well...... I kept popping in for a look but no one was around so I thought it had died a natural death. It happens......
