One thing ive always wondered is can you actually catch up on sleep? Like does it all accumulate - like you have 4 hours one night but then sleep 12 the next and thats the same (body repairs etc) wise as getting 8 hours on each night?

I don't think so. Maybe if its a once off maybe. But if its a continuous pattern I don't think it works like that. Well it doesn't for me. Cripes look at the time.!!!

I get about 6 to 7 hours per night and make up the rest at weekends! I've been doing a couple of early morning starts recently (getting up at 2am) so been managing those days on about 3 hrs sleep.
