Pyjama Time?

  1. Perhaps a vote for your favourite pair of pyjamas, Wincy?

    If they are numbered from 1 downwards, I'd cast my vote for no 2 (footballs) with a special commendation for no 5 (blue stripes) as they look so smart at bedtime.

    1. When I visit Great Aunt Greta she seems to think I am still ten years old and insists that I wear my football pyjamas that she keeps especially for me along with a blue Dinosaur pair. Miss Jacobson favours the traditional look and therefore is fanatical about me wearing striped winceyette pyjamas neatly tucked in.

    2. Great Aunts are like that I'm afraid. In their eyes boys are never mature enough to be allowed to choose their own pyjamas.

      I forgot to mention how the model in red-striped pyjamas reminded me how boys were never allowed to sit on the settee once they'd been put into their pyjamas. The 3-piece suite in the front room was reserved for grown-ups. Boys had to sit on the floor until mum announced it was time for bed.

    3. I love that mogg. I can imagine Stephen sitting on the sofa in his pyjamas when Miss Emily and her Mother arrive. "Stephen! You know full well seats are for grown ups, onto the floor with you and let Emily sit down, it's nearly your bedtime anyway."

    4. Delicious... and it must be particularly annoying, not to say embarrassing for Stephen since Miss Emily is nearly two years younger than he is. Of course the implication that Emily is allowed a much later bedtime than Stephen cannot be overlooked.

    5. mogg, don't you think Emily is considered so mature that she is trusted to determine her own bedtime? After all,isn't she allowed out of the house long after the older boys are pyjamaed and tucked up in bed

    6. Absolutely correct wincy and just as it should be. As everyone knows, boys simply can't be trusted to get ready for bed on their own. Young girls like Emily are a godsend and can be relied on to bath and put boys into their pyjamas, even if the boys in question are 3 or 4 years older than she is.

      I believe Emily is even happy to give boys their supper once they've been bathed and put into their pyjamas. It was her idea for mum to get a high-chair so that Emily could feed the boy his nourishing bowl of milk pudding...

    7. Indeed, it was the only solution. Stephen flatly refused to eat his semolina pudding by himself and when he was spoon fed, an awful mess occurred.The chair was the way forward, secured in the high chair and naked apart from his bib, Emily could finally ensure he ate up his nutritious pudding before he was given a bedtime wash, popped into his pyjamas and tucked into bed well before Emily left to attend to Oliver's bath and bedtime.

    8. And hopefully he got a good spanking as well. Lucky boys to have Emily get them ready for bed.

  3. The striped pyjamas are very nice. I do like to wear derek rose pyjamas.
    As a boy growing up in the 60s I always wore striped pyjamas. Of course I was punished in them and had to get into them early when naughty.
