Video Summary


  • The topic is the way beds are made in France.
  • In France, the top sheet is tucked in tightly around the bed, except at the head.
  • The writer finds the foot of the bed problematic.
  • When lying on the side, the feet's positioning is fine, but on the back, it becomes uncomfortable.
  • Trying different foot positions like turning them inwards or to one side is uncomfortable or anatomically impossible.
  • When the writer's husband sleeps on his back, he angles his feet upwards, but the writer cannot sleep this way.
  • The writer often pulls out the sheet from the foot end, which upsets her husband who finds it messy.
  • The writer wonders how other French people deal with this and if they sleep with angled legs.
  • The writer refers to a French expression "new bora bora" meaning "here we are in a mess," indicating the problem is not found with German beddings.
