"Top Tip" from me for today (not the cream in a tin).

 

Don't use single-ply bog roll. It's a false economy. Cheaper at the checkout, but in the long run you land up using more soap. Double-ply or higher is my tip for today - moving on to scented, moist bum wipes if you're flush.

Alternatively , eat food that allows for a 'clean drop' and avoid 'harlin' the pot' aka 'insulting the porcelain' and use NO bumph whatsoever. Very environmentally friendly.

 

 

 

 

 

This might involve sacrificing the consumption of vindaloo curries and the drinking of copious pints of lager.

Glad I was awake for at least 6 hours after the Queen of the South game then.

 

Fuck knows what kind of nick I would've been in if I'd went straight to sleep.

Don’t sleep on a problem or traumatic experience – it only makes it worse

 

If you have a traumatic experience, don’t sleep on it – it only makes it worse. Instead, stay awake for at least six hours afterwards to reduce the effects of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

 

Staying awake after a traumatic experience may seem counter-intuitive – and certainly goes against standard advice – but it seems to allow the brain to assimilate the event, and perhaps even make some sense of it.

 

Researchers from Ben–Gurion University of the Negev in Israel reckon that PTSD could be worse in people whose memories are allowed to embed themselves, which is more likely when you sleep. The effects of PTSD are so debilitating in around 20 per cent of victims that they are unable to carry on a normal life.

it's odd, isn't it? since after something traumatic, you're usually quite tired, so instinct is to go to sleep. but it seems as if that "sets" the event in your brain, like cement. and if the event were to occur late at night, the ability to stay awake that many hours after, fighting your instinct and need for sleep (given the event and timing), would be almost impossible.

 

thinking things through. always useful it seems. the brain's an amazing machine. :thumbs:
