Annoying Christmas presents

Thanks, but they don't do Superking size and claim to turn off after 3 hours. I wonder if the spec has changed.

Oh, that would just have caused resentment. I didn't want a dog, but I wanted her to decide that for herself.

have a top sheet

it stops the duvet rising up the bed as you sleep, can't speak for the effect of a leccy blanket

Eric Morcombe had no problem buying them ;-)

tim

they're getting worse though

my current pair haven't made it to six months before starting to crack, and if you just looked at the upper you would think that they were still brand new

I'm going to try some stick on soles :-(

tim

even in finished houses there the risk of catching a toe on the edge of a piece of furniture

done it a couple of times - bloody painful

tim

Yes they do, called suspenders.

Haven't you got carpets in the house? What's wrong with bare feet?

I was once camped next to a Cockney on a campsite, who got very confused whenever he found someone didn't own a dog.

Well, there's that. Also less constrictive on the feet. Also if it's quite cold, fur-lined ones to warm up or keep warm the feet.

Then there's BS1363 plugs. And Lego.

And squishing a large slug between the toes.

I use sheepskin moccasins (skin for sole too). Usable for short trips outdoors.

I buy the ones without the fur on the inside

The current soles with "the early bird catches the worm" on them (go figure) are s**te

the same uppers with the previous design of sole on them, wore out uniformly

tim

was that a Cockney Spaniel?

tim

There is no excuse for that.

Have you consumed as much vodka as me?

Was that instead of a turkey for Christmas dinner ? :-)

Have two side by side ??.

If you click on the item and look at the detailed spec it says 12 hours, (which mine does) so I guess the 3 hour figure is a typo.

You could even have an underblanket and an overblanket if you were desperate, but I would be thinking that you might have a medical problem if you are that cold.

Why hasn't anyone invented a bed that connects into the central heating system yet ?. Ideal option for a water bed ??. It could double up as the hot water tank :-).
