On snoring

[Churchill]

Are you overweight? Mrs BP used to snore alot until she lost weight. I used to run 2 fans all night to create some white noise........

Strictly speaking the two fans won't generate "white noise". Record the noise and look at the waveform in Adobe Audition or some such. There will be patterns in the waveform.

This wouldn't happen if your gf offshored her bedroom requirements

Noise cancelling headphones?

But personally I would smother you (if I was the girlfriend)

sleep on your stomach

Breathe Right Nasal Strips

Work for me - haven't had a 'decamp to the spare room' situation since.

As a lot of people have said here - go to the GP to to see if there is an underlying cause for the snoring.

Hubby use to really snore loudly and point which his mother and sister use to joke about.

Oh holiday once the night porter knocked on the door about 3am to advise me there had been noise complaints from our room.

Also, it was so loud one night I slept downstairs but is still made the windows rattle.

Anyway, after taking some antibiotics for a week - apart form the 'after a drink' snoring but improved 90%.

Sometimes I snore like a hog (usually after a good few beers) and my GF, bless her, resists the temptation to smother me to death and simply decamps to the spare room.

Any suggested/recommended cures for snoring?

You should let her sleep with somebody else*. This process is called "off snoring" or also "best snoring"

* Just a joke. No pun intended.

I get that a lot. They don't make headboards as strong as they used to

My wife used to grab my nose. Now I've developed the preternatural ability to turn on my side as soon as she tries - without waking up.

But if I've been on the piss, then she kindly decamps to the spare-room. And spends the next morning laughing at my hangover.

If xeno was still here you would surely have received some geek points for that.
