To anyone out there who has ginger cats,Dunehm Mills have bath robes in a fawny-gingery colour.

Not the most flattering colour,but eminently practical.

Now I am on the hunt for ginger carpets and bedding.

And curtains and cushion covers and.................................

I noticed a lovely soft fluffy one in Asda last week, in the men's dept but fairly long, altho not full length, only £12/50 and a sort of soft plum colour. I have a full length one I got from La Senza the first year o.h. and I were together, we went to the sales after Christmas and I spotted it and he said he would pay half as it was reduced to £30 which was a lot of money in 1996 It's getting a bit thin now, it's a fleece one, but still warm. To keep my feet and ankles warm I have a wonderful pair of those fleecey soft boots to wear indoors, there is no central heating here and lots of draughts from patio and front doors whipping through as it's sort of open plan. There are lots of soft bootees around that are great for wearing indoors and much warmer and safer than a long dressing gown.

I have 3 - all M & S and the bathrobe is longest but too heavy for me and it is still around calves. Will take your advice on board and check. If I wear OH's it is loverly, soft and warm and have to hitch it up with the belt!!!!

It seems to be about health and safety, to prevent falls,
Mens d/gs are longer.
same with nighties, where have all the long-sleeved T - shirt material ones gone.?

I do trip over my dressing gown when I go up the stairs carrying my hot drink and books etc. I have three winter dressing gowns and they are all long - what is the point of having one if it doesn't keep your ankles warm and when you are sitting down your feet as well.

hi chris, i have one, got it last year full length and i am 5ft 4. its pink and fleecy and great to curl up on sofa with. if i remember i think it was either great universal or daxon where i bought it. try googling and see what comes up.

Well they have them in M&S this year cos i have already picked out the one i like and hinted and hinted in the hope that a certain person will get the hint! Mind you, i have hinted so much now, i will probably end up with half a dozen!! lol

My one nearly touches the floor which is good as im 5ft 10.......but i got it 14 years ago from Primark

Why is it virtually impossible to obtain this item? Had this problem about 3 years ago and now not as mobile am trying the web. What they refer to as long is midcalf. I want my legs and ankles to be warm.
I had a dicussion with M & S supervisor 3 yrs ago and she said because ladies would trip over longer lengths! Iam not 6' tall but 5'6" and shrinking" Any ideas?
