I like a film on to nod off too..............recently i've been waking up at about 4am .......don't want to disturb Mr so I watch a film on my Zen ..........it's like an ipod but you don't have to faff about converting films lol....i don't even need to watch the film just listen to it and I nod off :)

I find the best way to get to sleep is to have 1/2 a bottle of wine then go to bed with a good book. It really works but it depends on your age because once I wake up I'm hot flushing and kicking all the bedclothes off. No matter what the temperature I always have the window open but I can't seem to do anything about the hot turns!!! Maggie, you're in Scotland aren't you? Surely a couple of hot toddies would send you soundo in no time. Good luck - give it a try!
