Night Shift

MazaritaSenior Contributor

Night Shift

Since I am awake at 4am I thought I'd start this thread for those of us who have trouble sleeping and might find it helpful to have a place to go to chat. Whatever gets you through the night is alright.

To get the ball rolling, I'll just say that I enjoyed being part of the Topic Tuesday discussion tonight. I wish it was possible for these events to be weekly rather than monthly. Either way, thanks SANE and all the people I've met on here over recent months.

Edited June 2016 and February 2017: Night Shift is now open 24 hours a day. To join in, just click through to the last page of the thread at the top right of this post to get to the latest message.

Edited April 2017 and June 2017: For the sake of better communications between members here, I am adding that this thread is meant to be a caring, kind and gentle place of sharing. Humour is welcome, as long as its not unkindly directed towards other members. Hope your time in this chat thread is rewarding.

Re: Night Shift

Yeah...I skip oer then re read and not skip over but read it thoroughly then re read again......

I have a very exciting life here.......

lol

I was seeing my Psychotherapist and had some more distressing news about my family but I wanted to see her about writing a novel, she wants it to be a novellette but I am getting very engrossed in the history. When my husband gets better, he is going to show me how to get online and download history books.......

It started off with a 62 year old lady who lives in a yurt and she is kicked out of the community because she is not needed anymore to be there for her skills. She moves to another community......and starts up her life again there. Whats interesting is that there are not many people in England in the year AD 607. I need to draw up the village, Ive researched that about 100 people live in each village. They also have certain relationsips with their neighbouring villages, I think that Christianity might have just been introduced .....I've got to read more on about that.

Re: Night Shift

@nik nik..thought safe to post here. Whoops yes I'm sorry. Point noted. I have had same tech problems as @TAB describes today. I have to physically go back into thread to post, as it jumps out of reply back into forum homepage.
Kind of annoying, so loose track a lot easier.
No doubt team is on it. Thanks Nik Nik

Re: Night Shift

Thanks for letting me know @Former-Member I think there was some work happening on the forums but I don't think the team know about that problem.

Sorry to ask. You a million questions Leia - just want to make sure we get to the bottom of it. Are you using the desktop, mobile or tablet version of the forums?

When you say you physically have to go back to the thread to post - what are you doing just before this? Are you pressing a link from an email notification?

Re: Night Shift

I meant tech team who fix bugs @TAB.
Are we a problem? You mean?
I think not. Well possibly we chat silly, but no more silly than anyone else at times.
Maybe we should be on a new thread.
That way it can be welcome to all who decide a bit of a chat on running news, shooting the breze kinda stuff anyone can jump on.
I hate being the organiser,sonu have to do it! @TAB

Gosh I stopped to chat on phone to partner, & my inbox filled up.
So I'm tipping we are loved! ☺
I'm watching Rocky.😊💪

Re: Night Shift

Hi @Nik Nik at present I'm using mobile.
If I go to thread from inbox, it normally jumps into attached comment for reply, but instead it goes to forum homepage..if that makes sense?
