Informal "Ice-berg" Run July 13 (NSW)

try waking up every single saturday at 4am (usually with a hangover)

2(panadol) + 1(berrocca) = problem solved

2(panadol) + 1(berrocca) = problem solved

i've heard of that trick but the doc told me there may be side effects.. that's why using pain killers to clear up hangovers are a no go for me

[Alex]

I may or may not show up. I've gotta be sober this weekend due to being on call 24/7 for the week. The only thing stopping me is the ridiculous starting time. It means something like a 4:45am wake up to get there, which is rather rough for a Sunday...

Meh, you guys have nothing to complain about, the last few weeks I have been working midnight-8am on weekends and 4am-10am on weekdays

I'll be waking up at about 6pm saturday for this, going to a party, work from 12-4am, picking up alex then heading over

Now I command you to feel sorry for me

Well then skip the party, Its not going to be that great anyway, get more sleep.
Your more than welcome to go by yourself on this one, or maybe you can just stay at work til 8am. Your choice.

Berowra ferry – (UBD reference 93, Q3 to 94 A3)
24 hours, 7 days a week
(closed for maintenance on the second Tuesday of each month from noon to 2.30pm)

The Berowra ferry crosses Berowra Creek at Berowra Waters from Bay Road (Tourist Drive 11) to Berowra Waters Road. The trip takes approximately 3 minutes.

I didn't even know our ferry was 24hr..!
awesome, its also the quickest way across to Penrith.

not sure if i can make it

im finishing work at 6am tomorrow morning. if i leave early ill try and b ehtere with a 6 pack of red bull as my passenger!

[marcusus]

Har! You're all suckers if you have to work those types of hours
It's one thing if you wake up still pissed at 4am, but it's another if you're normally awake at that time.

I suppose it wouldn't be a problem if that was your regular schedule, but I'd be absolutely ripped if I had to do uni during the week at normal times, then have to do those ridiculous weekend hours.

When I was your age, I was working a bar on weekends, and I thought finishing at 3am was bad (although by the time we'd closed up it was 4...).

Will see how I feel. At this point in time it's looking unlikely purely because I want to catch up on sleep. The cold I can handle.

[Regie]

yep the good old shift work 2 days, 2 nights then 5 days off thats the best bit!

Sleep is for the weak..!

you'll start to appreciate sleep more when you get older..

[-alex]

I love sleeping in but only when there is nothing better to be doing.

[sliq]

i fantasise about sleeping in.. *sigh* i even get excited when i know i have a sleeping in day coming up...

[bigdog]

Looks like I'm free tomorrow so I will join you and pick up Mrs Bigdog from her mum's place in Blackheath on the way through. Beware ice on the road anywhere from Kurrajong to Megalong (look carefully at any spots the sun doesn't reach, and it can be a problem right through the morning if it is cold enough), and the locals often use more than their share of the road between Megalong and Shipley, so watch for cars heading up the hill. Traffic coming home down the GWH will become a pain after 2.00pm, so make sure you are past Katoomba by then. See you in the morning.
