What's a doona?

Search: doona

Why: In the 27bslash6.com letter "Have you seen the movie Waterworld?" Kat sent:

Today when I got up it was bitterly cold so I sat on the couch watching Blakes-7 dvds wrapped in my doona and therefore technically still in bed. If I bought two doonas, layed down on them with my arms and legs splayed out, drew the outline of my body then cut out and stitched the doonas together to form a suit, I could wear this to the shops and even to work on cold days. People would probably look at me and say "I wish I had one of those doona suits" and I would say "Yes, it is very warm and comfortable and just like being in bed therefore I am exempt from any deadlines that may be placed on me."

Answer: A duvet! Or comforter! Originally a product name, now a a genericized trademark!
