Also if you have one person in the room, you don't have so much linen to wash.   Cathy ----- Your children won't remember you ironing their pyjamas but they will remember you reading them a bedside story.    Report

All the websites I found were UK based but some of the makes/marques like Seally are available in France. If you want to buy in France suggest printout a few details then do a tour of the French bed shops with proof they exist. http://www.beds2u.co.uk/shop.php?viewcategory=92&PHPSESSID=d01878c2bba66adf62dd949d18515ade http://www.sleepingsolutions.co.uk/home.php?cat=6   http://www.bedstar.co.uk/shop/catalog/Bed_category_Zip__Link-p-1-c-263.html          Report
