Electric Blankets? What's The Deal?

Just placed a hot water bottle under the deckchair. Might nip (geddit?) to argos and buy a electric blanket. Are they still dangerous? And will I need to hack into next doors electrics thing to use it?

Thanks in advance.

Not really, you could've just searched Google, I doubt anybody else cares, but anyway - http://www.which.co.uk/home-and-garden/heating-water-and-electricity/guides/choosing-an-electric-blanket/

I remember when they used so much electricity it was cheaper to sleep under the shower, and safer.

Yeah they not like they used to be man. I've slept with modern ones on all night.

They have safety standards these days. I can't remember the last time I heard of people being killed in an electric blanket fire, but it was a while ago.
