[Closed] Partying all night -WHY?

3 am is hardly all night! 😈

Why not start 4 hours earlier, get to bed at 11, good nights sleep, have the whole next day instead of staying in bed?

showing your age now!

8pm to 3am = 7 hours. To get 7 hours in ending at 11pm it'd mean drinking during work!

I also tend to find that once I've had a few pints I perk up and feel really awake

drugs?

coming home as the suns coming up and your coming down, especially in the summer can be the best part of the night

3am 😆

Usually I haven't even left the club by then, never mind the after party!

and the next thread from PP....

[i]why do my neighbours have all night wild sex?[/i] 😆

6pm - get home

8pm - out the house after shower/shave/getting ready/snacking/few beers

10pm - finish dinner

4am - leave club

5am - get home (or elshwere)

Continue partying either with friends or whoever's bed you've ended up in

7am - sleep

Well said leggyblonde!!!

3am is only half the night! Some people actually start early afternoon and finish at 8am. 😀

Maybe if there were 36 hours in a day people could start earlier. Some people have busy lives.

Personally I try n start early, otherwise I am screwed for the rest of the weekend, as I dont have time to sleep any extra!

roper, that's a picture of ton, surely?

They are clearly having a much better time than you, and as Hora hints, have much more sex.

if you wanted to go 😯 for 36 hours what time should ypu start/ finish?

No, you're missing the point. I'm not complaining. I'm not saying I've not done it. I'm just asking why! And it's nothing to do with age, I've always felt like this.
🙂

Why - cos thats when the party is! If a party finishes at 3 am its rubbish. Round here pubs shut at 1 am. clubs at 4. Want to party on for an hour or two afterwards? 3 am is early.

I like to have my dinner before I go out - so dinner at 8pm - pub by 10, few drinks till closing time........................

Born middleaged where we?

Chemical is the only substance that can keep you going.

If people are having a good time then why end it early? I'd much rather chill out for a few hours at home before i go to a party/BBQ etc than spend a day at work, get home and have to rush off out straight away!
I do hate wasting half of the next day in bed though!

I reckon you have to accept that a big night is an activity in its own right, and takes up most of the next day. It isn't compatible with having a plan to go riding or whatever. This is why I practically never go out. That and being middle aged. 😉

My longest is a 36 hour'er

Friday 5pm - Pub for opening game of 2006 world cup
Friday 11pm - Club
Saturday 4am - Afterparty
Saturday 8am - Pub
Saturday 3pm - House party
Saturday 8pm - Back to mine for a shower
Saturday 9pm - Pub
Saturday 11pm - Club
Sunday 3am - Called it a day

I think people just generally like having a good time and if you're out enjoying yourself why decide to end the night and go home to bed just because of what it says on the clock. Who care's what time it is ? sleep when tired, day or night doesn't really matter.

I sometimes get home from work and go to bed for an hour or so before I do anything else 'cause I'm a bit knackered to from a late night the day before.

I love sleeping, but not when there's a party on !

Kev

If a party finishes at 3 am its rubbish.

Yeah, but WHY?
If you're parting for 6 hours from midnight to 6am, why not start at 3pm the previous afternoon and finish at 11? That's 2 hours more!

When the children arrived, I stopped having all-nighters, so tend to stick to PPs party timeline.

It's a real bugger, no matter how late you stay up boozing and yarning, the kids still get up at 7ish and still expect to be fed and looked after.

Enjoy it while you can, you crazy cats...

If it was a 36 hour party, then it would have to start at 2pm, so you get 2 nights. 😉

Because there is always one in the group who says "go on, just one more" and time becomes a bit wobbly and meaningless.

Sounds like the BBq i went to yesterday! 🙂

Mind tou the one I went to on Saturday started at 7pm and ended at 4am!

Prefered the Saturday one TBH

[i]If you're parting for 6 hours from midnight to 6am, why not start at 3pm the previous afternoon and finish at 11? That's 2 hours more! [/i]

Because parties can only really get going after the sun goes down.

Who wants to start a party at 3 pm? Most folk are at work or if its a saturday doing other stuff. Its dinner then party so the party can't start until 9 - 10 pm.

Last afternoon bbq I went to still finished at 5 am even tho it started at 4 pm anyway.

Chemical is the only substance that can keep you going.

Personally I would rather start a party as late as possible, I hate early parties that ruin the latter half of a day when I could be doing other things.

[i]Yeah, but WHY?[/i]

If you need to ask, there's no point telling......

Some people have kids, and don't wanna get drunk until they are in bed.

I think the most likely response to this question would be, 'why not?' As TJ said, earlier start times do not necessarily lead to earlier finishes.

Personally I hate the wasted day/tiredness the day after so I like to get home in time for a cup of cocoa.

Maybe it harks back to our younger years, there was one weekend I got up at 8am friday and didn't get to bed till 11pm Sunday.

Jeesus, at no point in any part of my life have I managed that.

I have had a marathon sex session though that lasted from Friday night to Sat midnight on a girls parents bed when they were away on holiday. 😈

why stay up all night?

When I was 18 I would stay up all night (drinking or otherwise having some kind of fun - never drugs though).

When I was 30 I could stay up till about 4am.

At 41 I am seriously flagging by 1am.

mastiles_fanylion I fall asleep religiously at 10pm. So hopefully I will never be operating machinery or ontop of fatsimons other half 😆 😛

Is this a covert reference to the folk who were sharing Foreigner and Tina Turner with us on Saturday...... 🙂

🙂

Actually I know someone who was renowned for falling asleep on the spot and one day at work, he was fiddling under the bonnet of his car during his lunch break. He didn't turn up after the break so someone went out to find him and he had fallen asleep slumped over the engine. LOL!

PP do you drink?
It is defo an alcohol thing. I find I am usually warming up by about 11pm 😉

coming home as the suns coming up and your coming down, especially in the summer can be the best part of the night

i remember being in a club in Ibiza watching the sun come up whilst partying, it was an ace experience, 14 years ago now though 😥

PP = party pooper ?

I have a memory of leaving a party on midsummers night at around 4.30 am and wandering across the links in full bright sunshine.

Many a summer party here finishes after sunrise - sunrise being around 3 am

I have had a marathon sex session though that lasted from Friday night to Sat midnight on a girls parents bed when they were away on holiday.

So how much of that was her trying to find your wanger, then her simulating orgasm?

Wow you must have had to pay quite a bit for that.

Oh hang on there is no mention of anyone else being involved other than yourself. Going and masturbating on someone's parents' bed while they are way on holiday is a pretty strange sexual niche - is there a name for it?

If you need to ask, there's no point telling......

You're only saying that because you know you can't answer the question! Go on then, tell me..........
🙂

PP = party pooper ?

Nope. Just asking a question that nobody, so far, has even attempted to offer an answer to. Is this a STW first?

it's more fun to tease a Poddy :o)

The day of the 1997 election, I stayed up all night at a free party on Oxford's Portmeadow. The now-extinct [i]Musik[/i] magazine published a full page photo of it - with me standing on a speaker stack, silhouetted against the most perfect dawn, to the sound of super heavy dub and jungle.

I voted at 0710 - first time I was old enough to vote (why did John Smith have to die, eh?).

Things were different then, of course.

Simple. There are things to do in the day and essentially parties originate from when people got together to find husbands/wives or just simply to get laid. That's more likely at the end of the day when it's dark later 🙂 So, it's a cultural thing 🙂

At least that's my theory.

And as for suggestion that you need drugs to party all night, that's b***ks though I suppose you could argue that redbull or similar is a stimulant though IME if it's a good enough party, you don't feel tired.

PS I remember hearing that John Smith had died. My first thought was, "what, the guy who does the crap beer?" 🙂

Vote Techno Party!

Correction: free party was the night before. Perfect start to a pretty good day (or I so thought).

The fact that I voted for Bliar makes me feel a bit like Lady Macbeth (Out, damn'd spot!).

Ugh.

I think you'll find it's me that's doing the [s]trolling[/s] teasing....
😉

I once got home from a Christmas Party after daylight. LOL!

People Found partying 3pm to 11pm - CAMRA members, tea dances, weddings, school discos
people found partying 11pm to 3am - Hot girls

I never really "get" this trolling thing. You ask a bewilderingly pointless question, to which the over-whelming response is "shut it grandad, you're over the hill". And that means you have won an important moral victory over anyone who has wasted their time looking at your thread. Correct? 😉

What troll would be complete without BD's armchair phycology?

I loved all night parties, get togethers etc after the pub up all night talking crap and playing music, then lying in garden in the warm summer morning sunshine, discussing WTF the Teletubbies were all about.

Drugs, just say no or maybe yes if you are in the mood.

😉

I kinda agree with PP.

I sometimes find it hard to sleep during the day. Id much rather sleep during the night.

So why not start the party earlier ?

I quite like going out drinking during the day when the suns shining.

Admittedly I've had some great nights when I've come home at dawn but It totally messes your sleep patterns up.

I reckon you have to accept that a big night is an activity in its own right, and takes up most of the next day. It isn't compatible with having a plan to go riding or whatever. This is why I practically never go out on my bike.

it should be illegal to start a party before 10PM.....it makes people eat that way avoiding binge drinking like afffects?....

[chuckles at ourkidsam]

Tough choices... 😀

ain't that the truth

if i had half the sex hora recons he does, i'd be dead, however if i had half the sex he probably actually has, i'd be celibate

"I never really "get" this trolling thing. You ask a bewilderingly pointless question, to which the over-whelming response is "shut it grandad, you're over the hill". And that means you have won an important moral victory over anyone who has wasted their time looking at your thread. Correct?"

No, you ask a question and, if instead of getting a thread load of fawning replies, you get made to look a bit of a twunt you then come back with "oh I was only trolling"
