In general chit-chat with my boss today (company director ) he said he was considering staying up tonight for it.

Can't say I'd thought about it but....

When are we expecting the first results in? When do we get a pretty good idea how it's shaping up? And when are we expecting the result?

Anyone here staying up?

Is it 6AM it finishes? I'm usually getting up for work at 6:45! Though I don't have to be there before 9:30.... hmm.....

Yep, 6am. No work tomorrow, so tonight is election on tv running in the background, gaming, more election, gaming, cups of tea, munchies, etc.
Well, someone's gotta do it.

I'll stay up and watch the first few results but mainly to see the swingometer in all it's glory.

decmatt · 6 May 2010 at 20:25

What time does the first results usually come in?

Gackt · 6 May 2010 at 20:25

I'm up at 5:30am for work at 7am, so I'll be going to bed soonish.

lemonkettaz · 6 May 2010 at 20:28

I'm so up for watching all night. No sleep last night, none tonight.

Living the dream

Conference 9-7 tomorrow. I suspect I'll be staying up all night.

Ricochet J · 6 May 2010 at 20:29

I have to wake up at 4 tomorrow morning anyway, so I'll check then.

They start coming in after about an hour in dribs and drabs but most places won't be till early morning.

Dolph · 6 May 2010 at 20:30

Gonna stay up until I get bored, might do the whole night, might not.

Merlin5 · 6 May 2010 at 20:32

Oh good, there's a few of us then, we can compare notes.

I'm looking forward to seeing Paxman and what he has to say throughout the night, he makes me laugh. I always remember the spitting image puppet of him and his arrogant "YEEEeeeeees.."

Marky · 6 May 2010 at 20:33

lol you nerds - I have better things to do... like sleeping

I got work at 7

jp_bl_68 · 6 May 2010 at 20:35

I'll be watching channel 4's alternative election night till 1am, then I'll probably stay up till it looks like there's a favourite to win. But I'm not staying up till 6 to be told the next 5 years will be the same as the last 5.

Haiku · 6 May 2010 at 20:35

Yep, will follow things until the outcome becomes clear.

lemonkettaz · 6 May 2010 at 20:36

Think a fair few people have turned out to vote this time...

I've never been interested in politics till I started watching question time last year. Got to say I'd never thought I'd get excited over this stuff.

Actually looking forward to the whole thing

Hxc · 6 May 2010 at 20:36

I'll stay as late as I can manage, only got two lessons tommorrow so I can be dead at sixth if need be. Got redbull and kinder buenos, and am skyping with a few of the guys who are also staying up. good stuff.
