Just asking a question that nobody, so far, has even attempted to offer an answer to
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 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

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"
