Hooray for sun, boooo for no sleep
It is far too warm to sleep, I go up to bed and find it impossible to get to sleep so end up getting back up again cause of the heat. What can you do to keep cool?! Argh so irritating

Re: Hooray for sun, boooo for no sleep
One fan at the right level to blow cool air all over me in bed...I'm also sleeping in the spare room on my tod which really helps.

I don't tend to have a problem sleeping in the heat but partner does.. So we have a 12" desk fan at the side of the bed on a timer switch programmed to turn it on for about 5 minutes every half hour..
One slight drawback... Doggies love the cool so they now sleep in the best spot to get the fan so their body heat tends to make it even hotter!!!

Re: Hooray for sun, boooo for no sleep
We have a window open, and just use the duvet cover as a top sheet - that keeps us reasonably cool.

I find that putting a bowl of water in the room helps otherwise the air gets too dry.

Re: Hooray for sun, boooo for no sleep
A good nightcap helps, and I do not mean a fabric one
