On extremely hot nights I get the camp bed out & sleep downstairs where it's many degrees cooler. This is on my own - Tony remains in the bedroom. He can stand the heat better than I can..
) to the living room if it's cooler. I would definitely do the same!

I had a nightie, a cardie and one sock on too!
All the above is true. I just have a different body thermostat to everyone else.
I gave my tall fan away, years ago. I had it on all night as my ex partner used to get very hot.
The blooming thing blew on me and dried my eyes up. I couldn’t open them in the morning!!

Re: In this heat, how do you sleep?
For some reason I feel naked and uncomfortable if I sleep in the buff.I have to wear a bra in bed as well as pyjamas and knickers..only because my chest is to heavy and uncomfortable to go without.
I have a small frame.
I also have the bed covers on intermittently , on off on off you know what I mean.

PJs/nightie and nothing over you?
Butt naked with a quilt?
Butt naked with just a sheet?
Butt naked with nothing over you?
Windows open and fan going all night? Or just windows with no fan?

Re: In this heat, how do you sleep?
I am so glad I put thermal linings in most of my curtains , they keep the heat in during the winter and the sun out in the summer.At bed time the upstairs windows are all open to get a through draught and I turn back the bedclothes and lay on a cotton sheet in a cotton nightdress
. No problem sleeping except for Chloe changing her sleeping place.
