Ready For Bed

This morning's post brings me another nightshirt.  That gives me five in all.  I used to sleep naked, but I was feeling the cold  (poor, old chap!) and took to wearing tee shirts. So far, so good- but the tee shirt doesn't go quite far enough. What you want is something that'll cover your cocyx- a spot-  I find- singularly susceptible to draughts.

Are nightshirts strictly a grand-dad thing or do youngsters wear them too?  It's my personal opinion that a nightshirt is a lot cooler than pyjamas.

That's quite charming! You definitely need a night-cap to go with it ---- preferably red flannel with a tassel on the end.

My DH sleeps raw, but has said many times that if he ever becomes more cold sensitive a nightshirt will be his sleepwear of choice. I agree; I like the way they look!

If you're developing a bit of a paunch-as I am- the nightshirt- with its sheer lines- is a good way of disguising it.
