Be Excellent To Each Other

Someone on here (Jasmine or Mimi, maybe?) mentioned aaaages ago a big sleeping bag style quilt for lounging around in on the sofa. What was it called and where can I get one delivered from most urgently?

A Snuggle Fleece Throw?

If you mean the Slanket, it was me.

Very much no, not being one of those people who gets off on wearing babygrows.

Would.

OK. That's properly awesome.

Indeed I did - cheers mate. Amazon have them and I can get the old express delivery thingy. Sorted.

Yes, yes it is. I may be asking for one of those for my birthday. Plus, you look like an arctic explorer. Which is always a good thing, wherever you are.

I'm planning on getting one for the festival season next year.

Hahahah - Customers who bought [the Slanket] also bought - "Singstar Abba".

Why am I not shocked?

Because you were that customer.

I am so getting one of those.

When did links stop working in quotes?

Sometime in April 2008, I think.

They stop working if you just type out the address instead of using the URL tags.

Nah, I've often clicked on a link in a quote.

Makes sence Craster.

Sorry, I thought you meant the typed out ones. They've never worked properly.

FTFY

Yeah - stop being lazy and put in the URL tags.

Heh, I just assumed that they hadn't been quoted properly.

I can vaguely remember them not working ages ago, but I'll bow down to your superior knowledge.

It's called a "Dolescum Blanket". It comes with a crate of Pringles, a manky tracksuit and a special left handed TV remote so you can flick yourself off to Trisha.

Yes.

Amusingly, given that you slept on my sofa on Saturday night, I actually have one of those in my bedroom.

Man, you could have awesome fights in those.

They come in ridiculous sizes though. Their 'medium' only fits people up to five foot one, or something daft.

I wish I had a festival this year, that is so awesome. I am missing T in the Park this year, gutted
Rock Ness looks awesome too.

You could probably murder someone with one of those really easily, too. Just shove them in the bath, or any convenient body of water, and chances are they'd never make it out.

We always go to Glastonbury, but can't this year as we're saving up time and money for the wedding in October.

Which is but also

Get married at Glastonbury. What could go wrong?

Wierdly, someone is trying to shift a load of those on The Apprentice right now.

So, the Slanket was very well received. Mrs C has now gone to bed and I'm trying it out while watching BSG. They are the ultimate in blanket technology, short of having a built in Gillian Anderson.

You're such a fucking girl.

So's your face.

At least I'm warm and snuggly.

I could picture Alan Sugar dumping bodies into the Thames in one.

It's May, you imaginary beclothéd freak.

The one downside of living in a 1500s house made of stone is that you're basically living in a cave. It is fucking cold overnight even in the height of summer.

Also I'm a massive jessie.

Can't you burn some locals for amusement and warmth?

Annoyingly not. The fireplaces are slightly too small.

I got Mrs Grim... a slanket. They are pretty awesome.

I got the red one.

This sounds acebest, but I wouldn't want to own something called a "Slanket" no matter how good it is. Sorry.

You'd never leave the sofa if they included a Gillian Anderson so it's for your own safety.

Why would he need to?

I'm tempted to buy one of these for the missus... but it's frikkin' summer!

No it isn't!

I thought the same last May and decided to use a 50gsm sleeping bag when I went camping. Never again.

I nearly bought a Slanket (or Snuggie, which is the same thing) when they first came out but the shipping from the US was horrific, it would have cost about £80. I take it they have a UK distributer now? (googles) Ah yes, how pleasing.
