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.

I started wearing them when I was 22. Admittedly, they're difficult to find, especially in North America. But I agree, the men's nightshirt is the most comfortable thing to sleep in!

Odd piece of trivia...apparently they're the easiest to find in....the Czech Republic!

The night shirt is an old-fashioned garment and the Czech republic is an old-fashioned place. :)
