Chief sent me out to buy my first pair of pyjamas yesterday.

(I haven't worn a pair since I was 14!)

Went to both KMart and Target which normally serves me well.

Found that all the best quality flannel pyjamas all had Homer Simpson themes or were Holden, or even worse, Jim Beam all over them. How feral is that?

Thank god there was no VB pyjamas.

All the unbranded stuff seemed cheap and I've warned Chief that the dressing gown will fall apart the first time it is washed.

Upside, bought some grouse pyjama bottoms for 9 bucks each.

One of the major drivers behind this lifestyle change is that I am required to wear a layer of clothing under firefighter gear at night jobs - so if I wear PJs I don't need to waste time on donning clothes. Friday night's house fire reminded me, it was a tad hot in the house!

have i read this right in the UK you didn't have to wear anything under your suit - i'll never look at firemen the same

Have a look at all the blokes changing in VIC at night jobs and they are all wearing Homer, et al. They all run from their cars in PJs.

My captain's PJs have a nasty habit of escaping through his structural jacket front causing much mirth.

gosh this site is so enlightening

The very pretty girl who er, we rescued from almost certain death thanked us for the response - I think 6 fire trucks turned up in all. She said she was able to get out in her pyjamas quickly.

We explained that we took a while as it was to the edge of our area and we had to get out of bed too!

And what's wrong with that

I got some lovely PJ'S from the womens shop Sussan they are for the hostipal when i go into have my daughter so i wanted to have some nice one's looked other places such as big w, target etc they all looked cheap and nasty!!

Sorry bagel are you male?? dont think the ones in Sussan would suit you

nice for your wife though!!

lol - yes I am.

I just don't want Homer Simpson on my PJs. I do watch the show if its on when I am around as I enjoy it.

Had an email from my sister who is staying in oz (vic) to say she thought my sisters husband was still in bed and having a lie in and he turned up at 12.30 in the afternoon in his PJS as he had been out to a house fire on the friday night. i have a feeling his pjs are homer simpson too.lol

Hubby just used to have jeans and t shirt on the floor open ready to jump into. Never slowed him down. For 20 years wherever we were, he had the side of the bed nearest the door - even on holiday

As a psych nurse, I always say .... 'Never let a mad person get between you and the door'
