Hi, We've been camping a couple of times now and our (well hubby's) biggest problem is sleeping.

Whilst i'm snug as a bug in our Ready Bed, my 6ft 3in husband is too tall for it and ends up awake and grouchy. With our next trip pending, i was wondering wheather it's possible to buy extra long sleeping bags. Anyone out there know?

Cheers Catherine

My OH bought one out of milletts for £19.99, he is just short of 6 foot and it comes well over his head, as snug as a bug.
