Default Anyone got a winter sleeping bag I can borrow?

As per the title really...

Going to the Elephant Rally at the end of January but only have a lightweight sleeping bag...

Anyone have a proper winter bag I could borrow? Don't fancy blowing £150 on one I'll probably never use again...

Obviously will be cared for as if it was mine, replaced if damaged and washed before returning

Cheers

I have 2 lightweight one but they can be zipped together to make a double, if that helps. Less to carry and perhaps can take a couple of blankets to go inside. Also have a little 2 man tent to go with it??

EDIT : Can bring with me next Friday at the meal?

Thanks for the offer - I'm sorted for tent, I have my little one man job

Plan "B" is to just sleep in my clothes but I'd ideally like a proper bag just in case it decides to be a really cold one...

Do what I did :
Go for a walk & don't even think of sleep!
1969 & Nuerburgring - no chance of sleep so did a lap.
Toasty warm unlike the other 2 in the tent!
