Only ever nighted out, (erm night outed, what is the correct way of putting this term?) in a double bunker once. That was a Premium and I slept on the top because with the upstairs stowed, i kept banging my arm on the “matress” and with it deployed and me on the bottom bunk, I kept banging my head.

When I had a MAN tga, I always slept on the top bunk seemed warmer and quieter up there, you wouldn’t want to fall out though,it was a big drop to the floor.
when you take a sleepy nosedive out of a tga xxl top bunk the drop is long enough to have a think about it before you headbutt the floor. i thought it was going to hurt, and trust me, it did !! i sleep on the bottom bunk now !
I tend to sleep on the bottom bunk. I find the top bunk too claustrophobic and hot. I have still managed to fall out of the bottom bunk though 
last time i slept up top was in a premium, comfy as £$%^ but i rolled over and fell off in the middle of the night and woke up accross both front seats - still nice sleep though…
for those of you that are wondrin i’m 5’8" and weigh 10stone wet through…
Sleep on the top bunk in the FH didn’t have an option in the FM i used to drive.
Always sleep with my head on the passenger side. It’s quieter and after a low loader driver took my wing mirror off when I was fast asleep in a layby you couldn’t pay me enough to put my head that side.
Scared the living daylights out of me

Also which side would drivers like to sleepI sleep with my head on the passenger side, and find it really weird to sleep the other way round
I don’t get it when drivers say they sleep that way because if a truck hits them when parked in a lay by… If a truck hits your unit at 50+ mph then I don’t think it matters which way you are sleeping, you are ■■■■■■■ dead!

I won’t, not after the last crowd I worked with. Top bunk always feels wrong to me.
I’m intrigued.
What happened on the top bunk? …or would you rather not say?

I keep my clubs in the fridge. Orange ones first then fruit ones or occasionally both together
Always bottom bunk for me- just seems more natural than climbing up to go to sleep- top bunk when not double manning was always storage space
^THIS^

The top bunk on the 4 series topline, the one at the front, was great. Plenty of room and you could stick your feet out the sunroof on warm evenings! Everything else it’s only been the bottom bunk.

Lol 
no but my bed in the bedroom isn’t hanging off the ceiling either
top bunk for me, always got to go to bed up stairs, and the top bed is bigger in my stralis
Slept on top bunk when I was driving a scania, as I found it more comfortable.
Bottom bunk in my current man as store stuff on the top one and fold the bunk up.
As for which side, it depends which is higher, can’t sleep and get a headache if my head is lower.
I like the ERF top bunk ,as I don’t do curtains I can see who’s out side from the top with out them seeing me ,only problem is a night usually means a pub for a pint or 2 which means getting down for a pee about 2 am .
When I was at Maritime, I was on an R series. The fridge under the bunk kicked in. The vibration and the cold sent me to the top.
Changed jobs and got an older 4 series. The bottom bunk was like a razor blade and the top nice and wide.
Didn’t have much choice in a basic cab Renault Premium.
On a TGX now and carry on the tradition. Like Dan says, its a long way down for the toilet after a couple of pints. I have to use the storage box as a step up to the barrier for the bottom bunk, 5ft6in.
