Tonight I shall mostly be staring at the ceiling. Having an 05:30 start isn't a great prospect.

Yet in wintertime my Mrs will insist on having the heating at 20 degrees! (or even higher if I'm out)

My app is telling me, it's still 28 degrees.

Ridiculously warm and humid down here tonight, warmer than last night because it clouded over this evening which is keeping all the heat in.
Going to get up and sit outside for a while as I love these very rare warm still Mediterranean nights but not to try and sleep in though.

I'm not even going to try to sleep.
I have a 500w patio light on in the garden. I will spend the night catching moths, identifying them, and training them to do battle in a kind of real-life Pokemon game, but with tragic insect consequences.

You should fall asleep about 5.15 then

Still a warm 26 far too hot for sleep.
The new place I bought last Oct happened to have air con in the bedroom. "What an indulgence", I thought. Yesterday and tonight, I'm no longer so sure. I def wouldn't install it, but seeing as I already have it, it's very pleasant.

Grim. I've got a 20 minute each-way drive with a (currently) non-screaming toddler to do and that seems enough of a hardship after last night!Oh yay I've gotta drive 300 miles with a screaming child now

But that would mean you having to sleep with Goldstone1976
Many more nights like last night then I'd consider it

It was actually fine in the end last night. There was quite a breeze that whipped up, so I just had the small top windows open at the front and back of the house, left the bedroom door open, and a marvellous breeze blew straight through. Curtains billowing and everything. Lovely.

We have had a combined ceiling fan / light in the bedroom for years. When it gets warm it makes such a difference as it keeps the air moving enough to sleep comfortably. Well worth the investment.

Agree with that.
To be fair they look a bit crap but I like the breeze they produce.
Air con is fine if it's quiet but more often than not they rattle whereas the ceiling fan is like a mouses fart.

Finally got my three year old to sleep tonight after 2 dreadful nights. Staying next to a sheep farm so the shite ton of flies that came with the hot weather didnt help. Bloody wales!
