To think these are.....

[NurseGladys]

Just... ..vile

[classydiva]

Id expect to see a granny in it.

[overmydeadbody]

Oh God yes I agree

[overmydeadbody]

grannies and invalids would be fine wearing them though.

[emsyj]

They are vile, yes, but I sort of want one....

[faverolles]

Yes, you are right. Vile.
adds to Christmas list

[NurseGladys]

oh ffs, I just spotted these at the bottom of the page, am picturing camel hoofs a go-go with these, and where would you wear one? A fetish party?

[QuickLookBusySanta]

Ewwwww wouldnt want to look at my DH in one of them!

But I bet they're blooming warm

[TequilaMockinBird]

You can make your own slanket anyway - just wear your dressing gown back to front

[Curlybrunette]

Ha! My auntie is a QVC freak and she bought about 6 for various members of my family last Xmas. In a wide variety of colours to try and match their sofa's...

I wasn't one of the lucky ones to get one, and tho I may scoff, when at my mum's I do sometimes snuggle under her's (auntie bought both mum and dad one!) and they are amazingly warm.

Erm, a bit old lady-ish but I wouldn't call them vile so yes I think you're being a bit unreasonable

[HollyBollyBooBoo]

Aswell as being vile aren't they totally impractical? They look so long that you'd be tripping over them.

[NurseGladys]

Now, if they had them in a fetching tartan, that might not be so bad....

Morphsuit - roffling at advice re fluids

[QuickLookBusySanta]

I meant the blanket, not the fetish party attire. My DD[16] has just said those are very "in" and some of her friends at college have them!

I like the picture showing someone meditating in a Slanket, am wondering what else (apart from spiritual enlightenment) can be achieved in a slanket

[APixieInMyTea]

My mom bought me one last Xmas, still haven't forgiven her.

It got cut up and it is now used as liners for my boys' cloth nappies.

[mistletoeploppy]

I like mine

It's a double one - two sets of sleeves so dh and I can both get in

[Coffeebeans]

have you seen the tv ad? The whole family are cheerfully wearing them. Just makes me wonder if they forgot to pay the heating!

ilovemy and mogwhistle

Quick- college kids wear slankets too? Good god, what is the world coming too?

[NurseGladys]

coffebeans I'm not deaf, heard you the first time, dear

[NurseGladys]

mistletoe is it possible then to get intimate in a Slanket?

[mogwhistle]

ilovemy I am crying with laughter at that - genius!

[mistletoeploppy]

Possible, NurseGladys, but unlikely...

[SmellsLikeTeenStrop]

YABU. I have one, its red and I love it. It's warm and cosy and I can wear it while typing away on mumsnet.
