    Sounds more like hibernation to me lol...

    I've often set the fishing bed up with sleeping bag in the sitting room when I'm tired, mainly while the missus is watching a good movie on the projector, that just sets it up nice for me to watch the movie n fall asleep when I'm ready, also leaves the missus to turn it all off before she goes up to bed lmao.

    Snugpak Jungle bags are great for staying round mates houses and any particularly questionable b&b's!!! I have used mine loads, and packs so small... not great if its much below 7 deg though!

    I find most sleeping bags are just too restrictive, so no way.

    I often pitch my tent in the backyard in the summer. My room is on the 3rd floor but when I use my airco it's either too cold or it's just right but it warms up too fast and I get too hot again. When sleeping in the tent it's a nice cool temperature, much better. It also saves on the electrical bill and environment by not having the use the airco.

    I hope they are strong walls - there is an awful lot of force exerted on hammock attachment points. Might be easier to make a hammock stand.

    I use a sleepingbag instead of a duvet. Just open it all the way up and use it as a blanket... Much easier than having to go hunting for my duvet, which is usually stolen by SWMBO or one of the kids.

    I once owned a loft flat which had no internal walls, floors in only two rooms, no ceilings, no insulation and practically no furniture. For nine years I slept on the floor in a Buffalo sleeping bag.

    Cool

    Yep, every night, every season since I got my first one by redeeming points collected purchasing a laptop.

    I have now become a (sleeping)bagaholic; I put it on my bed and go to cloud nine, ehehehe

    Sweet dreams all!!!
