Oh how I wish we had shutters....

Yes - we bought black-out curtains, and then when that wasn't enough (light coming in top of rail) I took some old curtains and shoved them into the crack at the top. It is now very, very dark in our room. I have always done this kind of thing. My brother takes it to extremes as well, so I guess we don't produce much melatonin!

I don't like masks - they feel uncomfortable. I used to wear earplugs, but ended up taking them out subconsciously at night.

Travelling is a nightmare - rooms nearly always too light etc. etc. When I go back to visit England, my in-laws' room has light pink curtains! The room also faces the dawn. So due to the time difference coming from Chile in their Summer, I don't sleep until 3am, then am awoken at 5am by the sun coming up! The joy...the joy! No-one seems to understand this.

These days I rely on pills when I travel, plus the old mag and melatonin. Makes it much easier.
