Thanks all.

Do you listen to anything when you're going asleep?

    White noise of waves. Very soothing.

    Oul lad near me lived right on a cliff edge beside the sea. When he first went to England the landlady of the digs he was staying in used to have to throw buckets of water up against his bedroom window so he could go to sleep at night

    Did he ever forget to close the window before he went to bed.

    If you live on a cliff you never forget to close the window before going to bed.

    Ticking clocks. I have two and the ticks are set so that between the two it's non-stop. No silence at all. Lulls me off to slep in no time.

    Just my thoughts, you can't shut them feckers up, unless of course you're spectacularly drunk!

    Electric fan. Only recently, but it's lovely to have it on rotate at the end of the bed.

    Any old WWE Smackdown or Raw Is War from the Atitude Era or PPV depending on my preference. While I,shut my eyes I,just imagine I'm a kid again sitting in front of the TV watching all the entertainment unfold.

    I get about five minutes in and then I'm out for the count.

    Mostly listen to bbc radio 5 live (even though the reception is terrible) or else have the tv on some news channel or some random sport from the U.S. which is on live.

    Find it much harder to sleep without something to listen to.

    I like the sound of rain, and I have a tablet app I sometimes use. But I generally forget it and don't really need it.

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    ASMR. Every night.
    Have a playlist of around 40 videos which I dip into every night.
    Always guaranteed to fall asleep after those.

    For those of you that listen to podcasts, what would you recommend? I haven't listened to any bar Serial, and there are so many I don't know where to start!

    The sound of a rainstorm. I'm not comfortable with total silence and it's not really natural. The womb is a noisy place for babies.

    I occasionally listen to The Complete Guide to Everything, it's light-hearted and chilled out. And the conversation style is compatible with drifting in and out of conciousness. Not sure if this is a good or bad review.
