Can't beat the electric blanket. Jo.

I would have thought the cat would have been enough without the hot water bottle! Sylvia xxx

My mother used to have a stone one too. Rather cumbersome in bed. Sylvia xxx

Don't use it now, but I still have the old stone one we used when I was young. Woke up many a night with a fright, when it fell out of bed and banged onto the floor. Christine

Jenny, It's never too warm for me. Sylvia xxx

maz how long will it take me to get to cornwall from southampton on my bike lol. jenny x

a good tip for the summer when its too hot to sleep is to fill your hot water bottle with cold water and cuddle it till you go to sleep. jenny x

Believe you me, it can! Sylvia xxx

Di, your story reminds me of my youth hostelling days. I used to cycle from hostel to hostel. Now hostels in the winter are freezing places. I too, had my hot water bottle freeze, and I only noticed it when I woke up! Sylvia xxx

I wouldn't be without my hottie wattie bottie, it was a christmas present 2 years from my husband, men are so thoughtful arn't they?, but as we have no heating upstairs and no double glazing I wouldn't be without it or my 15 tog duvet, we get ice inside the windows in the winter when its realy cold. jenny x

We've now twin beds so I can't warm my feet on my husband. Anyway I soon get warm under the duvet. Sylvia xxx

I prefer the human variety too now. Used to have rubber ones as a kid. I have got a stone one, it was my parents'. I can remember having it as a child. Warm feet. cold everywhere else. Ann Glos

Who takes a hot water bottle to bed with them? Is it a stone one or a rubber one. Any funny stories about these bottles? Sylvia xxx
