Double the work

This item appears on page 54 of the October 2009 issue.

Put me down as a permanent member of the We Hate Duvets Club.

Duvets make it impossible to get a good night’s sleep. Before trying to sleep in a bed having a duvet, I strip the middle of the duvet out of its covering, throw it on the floor and sleep with just the covering over me.

Maybe if European and American hotels/motels find enough stripped duvets in their rooms, they will go back to sheets and blankets.
