Thanks everybody for your ideas 
. Unfortunately getting a Snugpak or British Army Jungle Sleeping Bag off eBay is quite expensive thanks to Brexit and shipping costs (the Snugpak one ending up at more than 1.5 times the price, the BAJSB even at triple the price), which is a shame, I really like the Snugpak. I guess I'll try to get my hands on either the JRC Defender and/or the JRC Rova (both in wide/fleece) which would be a good fit, as my sleeping bag cover is also a JRC Rova.

Jrc seem to be a forgotten brand now, they were highly thought of in the nineties weren't they? Cocoon bed chair was the dogs.
Still use their bivvy now, decent gear I think.

True. All of my early carp fishing stuff was from JRC, Wychwood, Chub and Fox. I still have a Fox rucksack from 1997, it basically still looks like new although it must have spent 100s of nights outside in rain, snow and mud.

I think chub as a brand was great, good solid kit for decent money...Shane it went downstream pan

I got the JRC one mentioned below but found it to be very tight around the feet ( I have size 12) so ended up getting rid of that and getting a Whychwood tactical which was I think 2 season? Very similar to jrc bag in terms of summer use but just a little more room.

I have also been looking for a very light summer bag but I can't seem to find a proper fishing one on the cheap.
I might have considered an ex issue jungle bag but I'd need to see one to be sure.
Also, they all seem to be right sided zips only so that's no good.
I think I'm going to use a teddy bear fleece throw as a very light blanket, and can also use my old trakker bed chair cover if I need to wrap up a bit more.
I will sew on a couple of pieces of paracord as ties so if I have to jump out of the bedchair I won't be dragging the fleece cover with me!
