    I know how you feel Hosta, my hub's head only has to touch the pillow and he's off, I then lay there listening to his snores!! Makes me smile when the next  morning he complains that he didn't have a good nights kip.......I know better!

    Have a good day Hosta

    Hubby once slept in taxi to Goa airport,an hour in the airport, the hour flight to Mumbai, 3 hours in that airport , 4 hours on the Mumbai / heathrow flight then woke up saying he " must've dropped off" !!!!!

    He regularly falls asleep and misses take off on planes.

    Reason enough to hate someone?? image

    My friend dreamed that she couldn't get to sleep and we all roared and laughed because she's a bit of a case. Years later the same thing happened to me. I woke up feeling as though I'd been hit with a baseball bat! image Not sleeping is not funny!

    Morning. 

    Cat has started a new trick of waking at 5am and then coming to curl himself round my head & purring his head off while nuzzling my ear. Cute - but not conducive to getting enough sleep.

    OH can sleep through just about anything, anywhere, anytime. image

    He has paid the price though - on more than one occasion he has awoken to find a freshly applied 'tattoo' (childrens' transfers) or a bit of artwork where I've drawn on him. image

    Well a girl gets bored listening to snoring at 1am... image

    Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down

    No you are right pp its not a joke to sufferers. I have always tried not to worry about it , thinking ( rightly or wrongly) that my body knows what it needs. Thankfully now I only work part-time, so I cope ok but there are occasions esp when I know I'm in for a hectic day when I do get a bit stressed during the early hrs- laying awake at 3:30 knowing that I have to be up at 6 to face a 10:1/2hr working day is sometimes a worry. I think my sleep changed on having my kids, our house is large and I feel that I just had to always keep a listen out for then during the night....now 30 + yrs later my body  is still on night duty despite the fact that they have all left home!!!!!!

    That's life!

    Good morning all image  I won't brag, but I didn't wake until 7am this morning image  What's that about?  Now I've had dippy egg and toastie soldiers and have made a pot of coffee ... when that's drunk we're spending the day in the garden - OH is getting the slow cooker from the back of the pantry and the rolled shoulder of lamb can go in there with onions and a sprig or two of rosemary for this evening image

    I once fell asleep while laying on the concrete floor of a sculpture studio - I had straws up my nose and an art student applying Plaster of Paris to my face to make a mask - if I lay down I go to sleep - it's as simple as that ........ usually .......... 


    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
