I've heard people snoring....
We went to a site last year that was pretty quiet and could hear this "funny noise" from across the camping field, we sent the kids to investigate (as you do LOL) and they came back and told us that it was someone snoring ... Needless to say we all decided to investigate and I can honestly say that I have never heard anything like it (and the OH snores like a good-un!) Felt sorry for the people pitched nearer though.....

 We bought a device a few years ago for my OH, for when we were camping with friends. It looked like a wrist watch, but gave him a mild electric shock when he snored. it didn't always wake him up, just disturbed him enough to make him change his breathing. I found it really helpful, but he abandoned wearing it after it picked up my snores and woke him up.

My husband used to be a teribble snorer, but regular use of "Stop Snoring" spray did work, and after a couple of years he was able to stop using it and now only snores rarely.  HOWEVER, the last time we went camping, he had some kind of hayfever type reaction to the trees on the site and snored constantly all night, and even the snore spray didn't work (he bought some for the second night), but he was fine when we got home.

As for other people snoring - all the time.  It's the one good thing about having to go to the loo in the middle of the night: checking out the best snorers!  The winner so far was in a caravan, but he (I assume it was a he) still sounded like a Harley Davidson at full throttle.

I spent 35 years camping with Morris Men on dance tours and at folk festivals.  There is no bodily noise I haven't heard through the walls of my tent!

One does get used to it!
