On the subject of sleeping bags, I see that some of the Vango bags are available in both left and right zips.

The question - is the left/right side stated for when you are a) inside the bag, or b) looking down AT the bag ??

Sorry if this is a dumb question !!

Hi burnleylee and welcome to the forums

Did you get the 'mummy' style bags? I can't stand them myself. You can get bags is various sizes. We use two Coleman XL bags zipped together to make a double. You can get lost in it it's so big and extremely comfortable. They were called the 'Chestnut' range when we bought them, but I've a feeling they've changed the name since then.

   Have a look at the 'Coleman Chestnut' sleeping bag, which has a cotton skin & cotton flannelette lining and is 210cm. long x 100cm. wide... They're very comfortable and you can get a seperate cotton flannelette liner, to make them even warmer for Autumn or Spring...

Have you looked at the Vango Astral 350XL? It is a huge bag, and excellent quality:

It also happens to be on sale at the moment, which helps!
