We had a chat about snoring on the show this morning as we had received this email from our lovely listener Helen;
Please help Ian!! Can you ask your listeners if they know of a gadget or yoke that will stop or curb snoring. If I have to put in another night like last night I will be arrested for murder. I love my other half dearly but coming between me and sleep again will see me have Christmas dinner in the joy!
Helen came on the show this morning and after assuring us that she was joking about murder she gave an account of a typical night spent beside her significant other.
We had a massive reaction to people in similar situations and from those who had come out the other side. Here's just some of their suggestions (In no particular order!);
Placing a tennis ball on your back while sleeping
Learn the didgeridoo or practice singing
CPAP machine
Using a memory foam pillow
Month guard made in a dental hospital
Ear plugs
A Finger ring
Nose strips
Lose weight
Visit the dentist for anti-snoring devices
Visit the doctor for sleep apnea
Rhynil spray
Snoreeze
The Spare Room
Divorce!*
