What do you call this?
 

That's a bloody Bathrobe, made of towelling! Dressing gowns are much more refined!

that's a bathrobe

People use the term interchangeably :idc:

Dressing Gown

I call them dressing gowns

So many Glaswegian people call it a housecoat... it sounds wrong!

They also call a sandwich made with jam a jeely piece!

A couple of my friends call them House Coats, it's something that's always annoyed me, I don't mind bath Robe, house coat sounds weird though (even though technically speaking that's exactly what it is)

Dressing gown.. Or my goonie :)

:laugh2: I love this

:laugh: I think it's fairly common to call it a goonie in Scotland

Yeah I hear that around a lot too... it gets on my nerves but not as much as house coat :laugh:

Housecoat sounds posh. Like a smoking jacket.

I call it a dressing gown.

Housecoat

Passion killer.

I say goonie but not for what Zee posted, for my nighty.

Yeah, I call a nightie a goonie too

It's always the Scots with the silly words

We have the best words actually :idc:

Dressing gown

Housecoat is literally the most absurd thing I have ever heard in my life.

I bet the English don't have an equivalent for "dreich" even though they definitely need that word

"Let them eat cake"
