funsters for the tip re sheepskin. They are fantastic. To sit on when it's hot....or cold, as padding when slouched in front of the telly. In the summer my bed consists of Duvalay memory foam on top of bed cushions. Two sheepskins, one wool duvet, two feather pillows, me, another woollen duvet. Just blissfull. In the winter the sheepskins go on top for warmth. Just wonderful.
