Let us take the opportunity to introduce Ciaran McCauley, the latest Bizarre recruit. For the next few months he’ll be popping up here (the website) and there (the magazine) in his role as staff writer. But for now he needs your help, suggestions and ideas.

In a couple of weeks he’ll be going completely sleepless and all for your entertainment. In Bizarre’s special report on sleep deprivation, Ciaran will attempt to go four days without sleep while still getting on with his normal everyday working life. Via the website, Twitter and Facebook, he'll be keeping you up-to-date on just how much his brain is melting into a sleep craving gloop.

Says Ciaran: “At the time I thought it was a good idea – impress my new colleagues with an appetite for derring-do. Now I just think I’m an idiot. Four days may not sound like a lot but it's not going to be some lost weekend party. I still have to come into work. It’s going to be brutal.”

So how can you help? Simply by making it a little more fun (or brutal) for him. Send us your suggestions for stunts and challenges Ciaran could attempt while out of his wits tired. What would like to see an exhausted writer do? What task would strain his sleep addled consciousness to breaking point and make a good photo to boot?

Leave your ideas in the comments section below or log on to this thread on the Your Bizarre forum. Or you can e-mail them in to bizarre@dennis.co.uk.
