sofa addendem - anyone for springslash?

[tadorna]

I am a sofa-owner!* It was not a cheap sofa. I suppose I can no long deny that I am sort of grown up. Incidentally, I always feel a bit weird saying the word 'sofa' because I grew up with a 'settee'. Somewhere along the line I switched. Like, we never said 'toilet' in our house either, we said 'lavatory'. Just thought you'd like to know.

In more important news, I'm fully convinced that now Bill Oddie has apparently left Springwatch, it is poised to become the biggest RPF fandom since Lotrips. Come on, people! Chris Packham was the sexy face of children's wildlife programming back in the 80s!

Apologies to people not in Britain -- there appears to have been little for you in this post.

*well, provisionally.

I agree, we should have nice things. I could have had a whole single bed for £99 but I bought an orthopaedic mattress for £150, still got no frame, but it is just so comfortable, I never regretted it.

Poor uncle Bill, he's always been funny and crazy but I recognised the manic behaviour especially the day he was on The Wright Stuff and almost started hitting people.

No, it's definitely worth it sometimes. You have to pick and choose the things you're willing to go cheap on and the things you're not. Life's too short to put up with too much discomfort and misery.
