What time are we home then?

Last night I was home about, because the pub chucked us out early.

So I was home about five past 11, I think, last night.

Any more crack to be had in the day or are we going to bed?

I'm quite bad at going to bed.

I always think there's a brilliant journalist, Gary Bainbridge, tweeted years and years and years ago, he tweeted, I'd love to go to bed, but I can't face the admin.

And I think about that.

I think about that a lot.

By nature, I'm a night owl.

I was for years and years, I would stay up.

And obviously the job of standup conditions you to doing that anyway, even if you're not, you know.

But then years of having kids has sort of,

pulled me back the other way so it's it's a i'm often sort of at war with my own needs and wants at that time and i really don't want to go to bed and i really know that i should particularly as i also know i'm going to be up at four coin five hours you've only got five hours before you time yeah five hours to time is one of my that's a great book it's a klf song yeah yeah

Do you watch the tally or what do you do?

Right.

So I'm trying to rewire my brain because it's rotted from years of 15 years, 16, no, more than that probably now, of sort of scrolling and social media and all the dopamine and those hits and the lack of attention span, all of the things that everyone's worried about.

I'm absolutely, I've rotted my brain.

So I'm really trying to kind of

be good and like read things that take a while to read and not, you know, not just have the, hey, shiny, shiny, shiny entertainment go into my eyes the whole time.

So I try not always successfully to sort of set time to like read a book.
