Keeping warm in bed

Most mornings I don’t need to get up straight away, and because I have a kettle in the bedroom I make myself a cup of coffee and sit in bed, reading my mail and the news on my phone. However, now it’s turning cooler, I find I’m having to wear bed socks at night (which I tend to pull off after a couple of hours) but also I need something to keep my top half warm when I’m reading. I’ve no intention of turning the heating on just yet so I tend to pull on a jumper but this morning I suddenly remembered that my grandmother used to wear a bed jacket in the morning.
Do any of you remember them or have one? Think I’ll investigate.

I have several crochet shawls adorning the chair next to the bed. All large, light and snuggly. One I often wear in bed is known as my Covid shawl as when I was "walking wounded" with the virus, it was permanently wrapped around me. Love a shawl.
