I have noticed it over the last 12 months.People at retail parks,supermarkets and in the post office,wearing pyjamas!

Saw a whole family once complete with dressing gowns and last week in PO i saw a woman and her daughter both in them??

Find it really shocking.What on earth is going on??

thanks for that tnog
although perhaps it's a sensible clothing choice in hot weather? lots of ventilation...

quite right chocolatepeanut-if there comes a time I can't be bothered to get dressed before leaving the house, I might as well give up altogether

Tnog · 17/03/2008 21:34

Did that sound rude?

CHOCOLATEPEANUT · 17/03/2008 21:35

Would love to live somewhere where you could grow sweetcorn and such but since I make my living off the scurge of society I guess I have made my bed

It wouldn't be something to do with Sports Relief, would it?

I went down the garden to the car this morning in my dressing gown because DD had left her purse in it & if I'd gone up to get changed first she might've missed the bus. I did feel very slovenly, and prayed like mad that no neighbour would spot me. I felt like Nora Batty, or that other one from Coronation St who always went out in her curlers.

Are PJs today's version of curlers, perhaps??

onepieceoflollipop · 17/03/2008 21:42

I sometimes peg out the washing in pjs. Our house is not significantly overlooked - 4 neighbours could observe me if the urge took them.

I do have standards though - I take off my dressing gown in the hope that they might think I was wearing a tracksuit...If it is really nippy I put my coat on over the top. I also brush my hair

By the way I only go out into the BACK garden.

tearinghairout · 17/03/2008 21:46

This was the back garden too. I'm glad it's not just me. When we weren't overlooked I used to sit in my dressinggown in the garden in the summer having breakfast at weekends. Now that someone's moved in next door I feel I have to get dressed first

But at least I do have standards This morning was a one-off!

CHOCOLATEPEANUT · 17/03/2008 21:46

I have done that too but to get in a car and go shopping?

I am laughing at the thought of any mums turning up at dds school in pjs.....The mums would certainly have something to say!!

CHOCOLATEPEANUT, I pity you working in a legal capacity with SOME of the people from those areas and yes I speak with experience. Do you not have pajama mamas in Bolton then?

FrayedKnot · 17/03/2008 21:53

FFS they are not pyjamas they are Boden pull ons

CHOCOLATEPEANUT · 17/03/2008 21:53
