Australian links 2008

Post by Moby » Thu Jan 17, 2008 11:17 pm

Since there are a few Aussies here on cpaptalk.com, I thought it might be a good idea to pool our resources together on one thread.

I have not explored all of these, they may not all be good.

Please copy the list and add/comment as needed.

The "sleep cap" - I might get one of these. Not so glamorous, but I've given up on glamour. Traded it in for energy

I know what you mean, Moby.

If my partner worried about what I looked like in bed I would be single!!!!!

Good idea Moby - thanks heaps. Some new ones for me to have a look at. I am planning to get one of the sleep caps to try, as the chinstrap I have now is hot and "rubbery" in the humid weather in Sydney's summer.

Cheers,
