Yes, pretty much. I have no trouble falling asleep. If I wake up during night however, it's hard to fall asleep again. I sometimes wake up earlier than I want to. Sometimes in autumn and winter, it's the only time of the day I'm properly warm. Those days, going to bed is enjoyable. While...

Covid-19 thread 4: the whack-a-mole

That's how you did it in Sweden (and Norway) when coffee arrived in the 18th century. Some apparently still do it today although I've never seen it IRL.
