I'm in bed at 8pm and up at 4am for a 6am start. I don't like to rush in the morning and I have a long cycle ride to work. I need at least 8 hours sleep a day or I feel all cranky at work.

bed at about 10/11. Wake up about 4.30 or 5 before the alarm goes off.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Go to bed around 11, get up at 6.40 Mon/tues and 6.10 wed-Sat (different start time).

Getting up at 4-4.30am is one thing I don't miss at all.

Between 10 & 11pm.

Used to be a lot earlier,but as much as I dislike finishing later I do not miss the really early starts.
