I'm firmly in the routine camp, both of my boys have a set bed time routine, it helps my missus out massively as she puts them to bed on her own as I'm at work. There's a family upstairs who's kids (all under 5) are still up at half 10. Horses for courses and all, but thats fucking mental.

How little sleep can someone survive on. Since the little one arrived I've not had more than a couple of hours each night, I'm also not someone who can sleep during the day or get back to sleep once woken up.

Went to use our table top computor earlier but the hard drive seems to be stuck in stand by mode. I can switch it off but when switched back on it doesn't do anything except the stand by button flashes. The last person to use it was our daughter for home work 2/3 weeks ago. Advice would be welcome?

Monitor her internet use more closely, she wasn't doing homework mate.

If you can get a routine in place then thats one less things you have to deal with.
Unless you become a slave to the 'routine'. Find yourselves having to be back home by x o'clock because little one must feed, or must be in bed. Bit of flexibility does no one any harm at all, and means you can still enjoy life, without being dictated to by a baby.

But most of all enjoy it, it's worth all the sleepless nights and hassle.

Agree with that. Too many people bang on about the negatives when talking about parenting.

Absolutely, use a routine to guide but don't let it rule out flexibility.

Yes, agreed. Don't let the tiredness and exhaustion take away from the wonder of a baby, your baby. Its hard but in 5 years you'll look back fondly. Sadly having 2 at once made it doubly hard and I won't ever get that again.

I had done. He continually fucks things up, can't stack boxes of mail on top of each other and generally lumbers about the place. Drives me fucking mental.

One of the kids friends has just used our downstairs loo. I wouldn't be surprised to find the paint peeled off the walls tomorrow.
