No - must dig ours out. Not sure where it is. Possibly in the re-inflating space bag mentioned on cappucino's thread...

Cod · 13/06/2006 11:55

Tatties · 13/06/2006 11:56

I just have a sheet atm, no duvet!

JackieNo · 13/06/2006 11:57

Don't have a summer bag thoughBlush.

LucyJones · 13/06/2006 11:57

we have same ones all year round... no wonder we're so hot!!

Cappucino · 13/06/2006 11:59

yes we have lovely summer duvet

winter one is angry though. as JackieNo well knows. It is angry at being put into plastic and is coming to get us

FrannyandZooey · 13/06/2006 11:59

I don't have a summer bag or a summer duvet. I do it on purpose, just to annoy you cod.

Cod · 13/06/2006 11:59

oh no relly folks

DelGirl · 13/06/2006 11:59

no, me neither but I still have alot of dd's paraphenalia (sp) to carry as she's only 14 mths and only recently bought a bag from next which is black. I think I may start looking for one though.

NomDePlume · 13/06/2006 12:00

No summer duvets here, just a 10.0 tog one all year round. Sleep under a plain flat sheet when it's especially stifling.

DelGirl · 13/06/2006 12:01

Cod - find me a nice practical but stylish bag, large enough for all the stuff for dd. Nappies, change mat, wipes, cups etc etc etc. And not too much £..................please Smile

DelGirl · 13/06/2006 12:02

Oh and which colour do you suggest. Have a buggy which is red and a pushchair which is french navy/ecru/charcol

FrannyandZooey · 13/06/2006 12:03

When it gets really hot I just take the duvet out and sleep under the cover. It feels wrong somehow to not have anything, doesn't it?

Tatties · 13/06/2006 12:25

Yes I always need a cover, no matter how hot it is.

Cod · 13/06/2006 12:34

DELGIRL

OP posts:
Cod · 13/06/2006 12:35

how much stuff do you have>?

i just had a larger bag

oh adn summer of for all season( shudder)

OP posts:
DelGirl · 13/06/2006 13:56

not when you get hot flushes cod Grin

And as for the bag, I wasn't suggesting for a moment that I would match a bag to a pushchair/buggy, just thought i'd tell yuou what colour they are Grin

My next bag is a 'normal' large bag and that's what i'd like.

Usual amount is 2/3 nappies, & wipes, thin change mat. Tissues, make up bag, purse, phone, cup, small toy perhaps. That's usually about it.

Bozza · 13/06/2006 13:59

Well I had lost both ours or we would have changed it weeks ago when we had the last warm spell. But on Sunday night I went in the loft and found it straight away so we are now in it.

Twiglett · 13/06/2006 14:03

no summer bags
no summer duvets

what else am I deficient in?

foxinsocks · 13/06/2006 14:04

we all have summer duvets [preen] 2.5 tog I think, but it was a hellavu job forcing all the winter duvets into the little space above the tank thing in the airing cupboard (actually they were part of a set from M&S where you can clip the summer + winter one together to be extra warm or have them separately)

JackieNo · 13/06/2006 14:06

Yes, our duvet has a thicker spring/autumn one and a summer one that velcro together - not sure we've ever needed both bits at the same time.

foxinsocks · 13/06/2006 14:10

I tried but it was really hard getting the duvet cover on once I had clipped them together - bits kept unclipping and making lumps (though the kids didn't seem to notice!)

charliecat · 13/06/2006 14:18

Just have a sheet on as upstairs feels like the heating has been on all day for weeks and theres no windows open....sighh..

KommandantColditz · 13/06/2006 14:20

How the hell can you lose a duvet! They're huge!Grin
