Quote from: Miss Demeanour on June 21, 2017, 06:43:16 AMThe battle over the perfect sleeping conditions is raging on at the moment but I fear I am losing.Now it is a tad warm at night but there is feck all breeze evident. However the man insists that the windows should be flung as wide open as possible. Now in his tiny weeny head this means it will be cooler. The reality is though that you can hear every car go past, every muppets conversation that happen to be walking in the vicinity and the soothing drones of the pigeons annoying the bejesus out of you. My preference would be for the windows to be shut and the fan on. At least the noise of the fan is constant and you can then sleep with that level of disturbance.Second issue is of light . Now his nibs likes some light coming into the room ( borrowed from Street lights, the stadium lighting offered by the automatic security lights from across the road and of course the natural lighting the moon and stars provide voluntarily ...somewhere apparently!!!I like complete darkness. Total and utter lack of light!! Needless to say I am losing.I am also the light sleeper whilst he can sleep through anything.So why the feck does get insist on these things invite doesn't matter one jot on the quality of his sleep. grrrrHave you tried waiting till he is asleep then holding a pillow over his face?
