Not everyone is phased by the idea of getting up early after a few hours
sleep.


I worked all night once before catching a flight to LA. It took a week to sort
myself.


I used to think I wouldn't be able to handle it as I got older, but I
can still do it fine. Not night after night obviously, but one good
night's sleep, and I'm back to normal. Well, for the moment!


When I'm really tired like that, that's about the only time I can sleep
on any form of transport.


What works for me is to get almost no sleep during the night before
the trip out. I used to do an all-nighter, but I'm now too old for
that.
