    What?! You don't have a pair of jim jams especially for the occassion of wine drinking? :rotfl: I always find my Animal Muppet ones are the prefect ones! :D

    Hmmm I think I shall have to pop down to M&S now, and ask the shop assistants "where do you keep your wine-drinking pyjamas? My current ones have too many Buckfast stains to be seen in public." :rotfl:

    I'll pass on that as I don't want to gt PPRd. :D

    Really, that bad? I'd think ill of someone if they committed violent crime or some other very damaging activity, but apart from that I'm really quite laid back about how ordinary people choose to live their lives.

    I do hope this subject comes up in my Social Science course, I'm finding this debate to be rather interesting :D

    Surely, popping next door to a friend or relative for a girly chat in pj's is the equivalent of the pyjama party?

    I thought at pyjama parties you went fully dressed and changed when you got there?

    Not that I'm an expert on the subject as I've not owned a pair of pyjamas for 50 odd years so my invitations were few. ;)

    No, she said " we occasionally visit family next door, in jammies at 9pm on the weekend after work.":D

    Just seen someone in their dressing gown and pjs around 3pm at the local shops. She stood out like a sore thumb. what made me more gross out was it was raining so it would be all damp for when she eventually got home.
    Don’t put it down - put it away!

    That's a coincidence! I saw the same thing, at around the same time (and in the same weather...). Are you in Scotland?

    I was standing behind the girl, waiting to pay, and noticed something else - apart from the things you've already mentioned.

    In the words of the woman at the till, "That lassie wiz honkin'!"

    There was certainly an unpleasant aroma around the pyjama-clad lass. Perhaps it was because her dressing gown and jim jams were damp. Perhaps it was because they hadn't been freshly laundered - and nor had she - when they were put on.

    Whatever the reason, her memory lingered.

    Having given this alot of thought I have to confess that I left my handbag in the car one day. I was in pyjamas and looking for said bag, to get my eye drops as if I don't use them before bed I wake up with sore eyes. I sneaked down the drive and into the car and retrieved said bag. It was dark, it was late and I don't think anyone saw me. I was like James Bond on a mission.

    I once drove to my friend's house at 11 pm in my pyjamas but it was a mercy mission! Friend, husband away, MASSIVE spider, hysterical phone call begging me to come round. I threw a coat over the pj's, time was of the essence and no one saw me. Hero friend saves hysterical friend from man eating spider (tho it wasn't that big! )

    Sometimes I used to bung the twins coats on over their pj's when I was taking their big sister to school, but they were only 2 at the time.

    However I would never go anywhere with pj's on. How long does it take to throw some clothes on?
