We took one 5mg tablet of melatonin last night and we both felt the effect early in the morning - we both felt drowsy around 2am, but still found it difficult to turn our brains off.

The flight from LHR was pretty good.  Upper deck was comfy and I had plenty of legroom in 62K, good selection of films and food was pretty decent as well.
