Yes, Edmund. They are excellent. :-)
Mamya, thanks for trying to help but I think/imagine that a weighted blanket would be too claustrophobic and hot. We sleep, winter and summer, with just a sheet and bedcover. We don't even use a duvet.
Perhaps I should just buy a lilo type thing to put beside the bed, or use some old pillows to break the fall if it happens again.
Vagus, the fish pie is a good comfort food idea. Fish, chips and peas tonight though. :-)
