where can i get one of those masks for flying on airliners?

[Gary]

you know the ones i mean?
I want a blindfold type thing to strap over my eyes so i can get some shut eye on the plane tomorrow.
i always think i can sleep on planes, but then i forget just how bright they are inside even when your eyes are closed.

gotta flippin get up at 3am to catch this one, so i want at least a little shuteye on the way there.

How about Boots? They sell them I'm sure

you'll find a couple of places in the airport, about a fiver ish

If you're traveling long haul, then I'd guess you will get one in the pack you'll be given when on the plane.

I know when I have traveled long haul with Virgin, BA and Emirates there's always an eye mask and ear plugs in the vanity bag provided in flight.

thanks for the help guys..
i'll try boots. if not i'll do it at the airport (was hoping to arrive as late as possible at the airport though )

Most chemists sell them I think.

Infact I'm sure I saw one last week in Asda, on the "Travel stuff" shelf (along with mozzie repellant and travel games)

Tesco sell them, usually on an aisle end with all the other travel stuff, like adapters etc.

Alternatively the last place I saw them was La Senza, with the words 'Grumpy but Gorgeous' written across them

Get one of those neck pillows too. I got a couple for me and the wife when we went to New Zealand and along with ear plugs and the face masks, it was snooze city - all this from an insomniac!

 

[Gary]

thanks again guys..
might try tescos as it closest and i can go on my bike

my missus has one of the grumpy but gorgeous dressing gowns. one of these days i will unstitch 'but' and 'gorgeous'

 

[Marcel]

or unstitch gorgeous and sew an extra 't' in

Infact if you do that, send it to me, I'll give it my wife

LOL, took me ages to get what you meant, but it was worth it in the end

Anyway, problem solved, i biked to boots and eventually found fetching blue mask

Take advantage of the free booze, (unless you are flying budget!), and you will be snoring in no time!!

Tescos, they have the mask, the neck pillow and "comfy socks" for £3

Whats wrong with using a pair of underpants?

 

[Gary]

the mask worked nicely
and believe it or not, so did counting sheep! I've never tried it before, but i got to sheep number 34 and I was gone.

I just tried to use a sleep mask as a pair of pants......not a good look.
