Anyone have sleep problems - especially older people like me?

Marianne72

I find it harder to sleep through the night as I get into my 70's. I wake almost every hour and need the toilet - whether or not I have a bedtime drink. Anyone else have this? Any remedies, apart from reading in bed?  Summer is ok as I can sit in the garden or pot up plants, but winter is horribly cold! I don't get up until 12pm - or later. True, I don't need to, being retired, but this is getting annoying!

    Probably not. I've had to give up my allotment in the last few months due to shoulder problems - actually, when I think about it this was a large part of my exercise. I live in a village where there is one street, so if you go for a walk there is curtain twitching. I want to complete my path around my back garden, then I can walk a few turns around that. Thanks for the advice - I'd forgotten this factor.
