I just wandered how much sleep you all get a night. I used to be able to sleep forever, but not any more. I get at best 7 1/2, at worst 5 1/2.

I can remember when no one could get me out of bed before 11 on a Sunday. Now I'm up before the birds.
At best I get 5 hours at worst 3 1/2.

Five hours for me is about right but, then again, I have never been a sleeper. I normally wake a couple of times during the five hours. Any less than five and I am a bit grumpy!

I go to bed about 11:30 and I am up just after 7 most days. I make a big issue about a long lie on a Saturday but rarely sleep past 8am.
I usually go back to bed on a Sat and just sort of lie and think but not sleep. In the winter I am happy to do that but in the summer I am up with the back door open and a cuppa in my hand and sitting outside if I can.
I am a spring/summer girl
Sorry Taz but roll on the spring.

Go to bed about 11, watch tv for a couple of hours. I am in a lot of pain, so I am lucky to get more than 3/4 hours sleep.

my best is 7hrs but my usual is 5hrs. Always wake up during the night for the loo. Would love to do a 12hr stint like when I was a teen.

Teenagers actually need the sleep. I read that it's to do with their hormones and growth. I use to love those lazy weekend mornings

Add it all together and I probably get about 4 or 5 hrs on average, but I don't wake up every hour like I did 18 mths' ago. I usually wake about once in the night but I seem to wake up far too early and that's me for the day, at about 5am as a rule. The bliss 7 or 8 solid hours must be...
