Really random (and a bit boring) question...

We never seem to retire for the evening before midnight despite better intentions. It drives us mad each morning when once again we swear it will be an early night tonight!

OH and I were just wondering what is 'normal'

we tend to go somewhere between 10 and 11 though hubby sometimes watches film into the early hours of the morning but usually falls asleep and misses the end, I refuse to have a telly in the bedroom

I worked nights for years and now have a real problem with insomnia so tend to go when I am tired now - some nights it's 3am, some 8pm Rolling Eyes

OH goes at midnight every night (thank goodness he lives nextdoor)

We always intend to go to bed about 11pm, but it usually ends up about 1.30am Exclamation

Well, you know me! Rolling Eyes

Quite often it's at least 2am. Embarassed

Have to get up just after 7am weekdays to get the boys to school. I usually get a lay-in at the weekends though. Wink

As I get up between 5am and 6am I am in bed by 9pm, I usually read for 15 mins and am asleep by 9.30pm. Hubby stays up till 10pm - sometimes later if football is on - then lets the dogs out last thing. We have an elederly dog that needs to "go" which is why I'm up so early.

I'm the same and despite best intentions usually seem to be in bed between 11:30 and midnight...... and I'm a nightmare for getting up in the morning too! 8 - 8:30 is a good day!!!!

We are very very rarely up past 10pm, I get up at 5:45 in the morning to take the dogs out before work so by half eight ninish in the evening I'm pooped - Wags (our border collie) just loves going to bed and if we don't look as if we are on the way by half nine he asks to go up - he is so cute! Very Happy

yeah our alarm goes off at 5 so anything much past 10.30 counts as a late night during the week. Sadly we don't get much of a lay in at the weekends because the alarm cat then takes over and demands breakfast by 6 Rolling Eyes

I usually ring The Hermit at about 9.30, just before I go to bed to find out what he's been up to during the day. We are on the phone for about an hour, then I go onto bed about 10.30.

We usually are in bed by 10.00 as OH's alarm goes off at 4.30. However, he was asleep by 9.30 tonight and some nights I am awake for hours, falling asleep just in time for the alarm!
