As some of you know I am awake an awful lot during the night. I have freeview in the bedroom and switch that on when I have woken up or can;t get to sleep.

What a load of rubbish they feed the insomniacs with! BBC4 has some really good programmes on, documentaries in the main. The rest of the channels have complete garbage.

If there is a film, it has subtitles, great if you don't wear specs. I have to arrange my head so I can both read the words whilst not destroying my glasses...lol (I have to lay on one side). I usually end up with them perched on the end of my nose, so the arms don't get bent.

I have lost count the number of times I have watched an episode of Poirot!

Moan over.

NB I did not mentioned the B word TW...lol

I sadly do have my laptop on the bed some nights! I also have two books, notepad and pen. But sometimes I just want to slob out and be entertained by something other than the latest food shredder ads or some gym equipment advert that will give me the body of a svelt 18 year old if I use it for 10 mins a day, three times a week for a month!
