There's two.  Dave and Stephen.

Get 'em both out!

I kinda like anything that stirs up the house. I agree, it's really annoying, but from a game-play point of view it has to be good for minor conflict and division.

that is a very loud snorer, just watched highlights

It would drive me insane if I was in the house, might be tempted to put a pillow over their faces

leave Steve alone

i wake up if my cat moves never mind that racket lol  that would drive me mental 

It's awful

And who is gonna have the guts to nominate a war hero who`s been blasted to bits

If he is difficult to live with and if his snoring is causing problems I think you would be surprised!

oh I dunno, I know somebody not a million miles away from where I am sat sut who snores about that loud,!!

Old Hippy Guy - get her fitted with one of those contraptions that keeps the mouth closed - they really helped me.  Or those breathe-right thingeys from the chemist work.

Old Hippy Guy - where`s your biker picci?

dunno which one you mean, the present on is a "self portrait" I did from a photo a while back,
as for the snoring, we have tried loads of things,......I have learned to live with it, hehehe

My other half snores. I have always found a cricket bat to the head to be a handy deterrent.

The one you had on last year`s forum - its not coming up on screen.

They would totally love me in the house, not only do I snore, but I also get night terrors where I scream and really cry out in my sleep and to top that when I am stressed (which I imagine in the first few days sleeping in the BB house I would be) I also sleep walk and do really odd things while I am sleep walking.

Cinds - you need treatment

I'd have to ask the snorer could I sleep with them so's I can nudge them but not the monk....

Old Hippy Guy - yep your picci is there, just not showing on the main screen.  Lots of people`s aren`t showing - must be my computer.

Did sleep clinics when I was in my teens, nothing to report. The way I see it is, instead of releasing my stress in my concious state I release it in my sleep. The snoring however is different 

That normally happens if your using IE, there's help in the help part for it, I use chrome or FF....

AH that will be it then, I am using FF always do, and was there for me

Thanks OHG

Heavy snorers who are also overweight may  be suffering from "Sleep Apnoea".This is when they snore really loudly ,but their airways maybe blocked due to fat etc round the neck.They do actually stop breathing for a few seconds many times during the night.then the body kicks in and they then grunt loudly etc,They are often very tired during the day as they don't have a good nights sleep litererally.

My late brother suffered from this,it can also affect your heart.

Cheers for that. I wondered why so much stuff wasn't showing for me.

What I hate is the fact it's out of their control and they feel guilty keeping their partner awake. It must be as annoying for them when they wake up as it is for their partner who can't sleep because of it.

Loads of us had that problem in the begining just wish I knew where the help part was....

lol I'll have a look tomorrow when I'm more awake

There is treatment etc available at sleep clinics,usually wearing a mask etc with Oxygen filtered into the nose etc. It's a serious condition as opposed  to  the odd snores due to booze etc.
Apnoea is a clinical condition.

Wot about RLS? restless legs syndrome, I have it, and I can tell you it's a SWINEISH thing, I NEVER get to sleep before 4 or 5 am, any night, sometimes you feel like crying because you are SO tired, but it just WON'T let you sleep,
it's like sleep deprivation torture, you start to drift off  and it's like having someone poke you awake every time you do, I dread going to bed most nights,

I suffer from that too, it's horrible. I was hit by a car when I was young, two broken legs. I don't know if that has any bearing on it but my legs get really restless almost as though they have a life of their own at night.

OHG, I get  that the odd time,but nothing serious . I think that is still one of the things that science still doesn't understand.Mayber search the internet etc.

I have had it all my life, I can remember it as a small kid, but it certainly gets worse as you get older, it used to be a now and again thing, but the last couple of years it has become an every night thing,
it's difficult to describe, but it comes on like the most intense tingling sensation in one or other leg, so intense it makes your leg twitch involuntary, poor Pepsi (the missus) has the bruises to show for it,
I have looked into it, it is apparently in your brain and not your legs, something to do with the change in brainwave patterns as you fall asleep, NO known cure,
they ain't even certain what causes it, there are drugs out there but they apparently have some nasty side effects and are only partially successful,
its cost me at least 2 jobs in the past, luckily I am now self employed so I can get up at lunchtime and work late and it doesn't matter, except I am usually wide awake when everyone else is going to bed,

Hippy guy, it gets worse the later you go to bed. I can go to bed on time and it doesn't affect me at all but if I'm already overtired and then go to bed it kicks in every time. If you feel tired, go to bed. Chances are good you'll fall asleep. Stay up too late it will kick in every time. That's my experience of it anyway.

Mario should think himself lucky having a mole hole to himself ..... If I were in the main house, I'd kill to be sleeping where he is ... at least it's quiet
