It's quite easy really, If you get as excited about these things as I do you just do it :-)
There was a brilliant documentary the other night on BBC4 about 60 years of Election Night programmes which included the extraordinary bit in 1964 where Richard Dimbleby invites the viewers to take a look at "the pretty young female staff in our studio" or something like that, as the camera pans around, and then someone rings in to say they've seen a mouse running across the top of the State of the Parties board (!)
But I digress

of course all of TGL's results where wonderful I'd have to say the only one I actually stayed up for was JM in 1992, after Kinnochio's "victory" rally the day before I just knew the public would deliver a slap down, I was not dissapointed. I doubt I'll be up this time as I'm going out Thursday night for a light ale so probably won't be about!
TTT you mean you missed the great woman herself hanging out of a window in Smith Square, with Normo Tebbs and the rest of the aging Politburo, going on about the "inner cities" while Normo looks on adoringly (and slightly pie-eyed imo) saying "*** the inner cities for now lets party" - or words to that effect.
That was 1987.
Now 1997 on the other hand :-)

I have watched an election all night in the past but only because I was on a different time zone and it wasn`t night (and I had nothing else to do). I find it easy to stay up all night when I`m working so I wouldn`t have a problem with tiredness but in the case of the election, I would rather be asleep. Watching it won`t make any difference to the result anyway.
