You work better at night because most people are sleeping and consequently not polluting the mental environment. You experience this as peacefulness which allows you to concentrate. The only problem is that you might already be tired …

Around 6 a.m. people start waking up, they are nervous, late for work, worried about their finances, angry at their spouses etc. You can actually feel this unrest as it builds up in the morning.

You´re a B-person:

Your brain works better at night because evolution made human brains that way to avoid predators and reproduce faster.

Perhaps I'm a B-person. Or maybe I'm Hyper-A, given that I work best between 1am and 6am.

All I know is that several years ago, I worked all night to give birth to you. I was driven to Morriston Hospital at 11pm by Dandy and YOU put in an appearance at roughly 5am the next day…. sort of fits the time-scale, I think!

BTW when I dozily looked at my wrist-band on the way back to the ward and said ‘Oh look, its a palindrome!’ The nurse said…’Now don’t you worry!… It’s nothing like that. It’s a perfectly normal (sic) baby boy!…..’ ??????

Young padwan you're a Jedi not a comedian. If you were hoping to use the Jedi mind trick whilst delivering that line, you must learn that it does not work over TCP/IP.

I think it is because when you were with Take That – you sung backing vocals on “Why can’t I wake up with U(ML)”

The lack of interruptions also probably helps – less context switching!

It’s a family thing. Really. We’re all the same. Bring on the day I can work freelance from home…
