sofa addendem - anyone for springslash?

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.

Sofas are good! Till it arrives I'll be making do with an airbed and lots of cushions and duvets, which I'm sort of looking forward to too!

I had a weird mixture of influences growing up. I think settee might have come from the Northern side of the family, but I could be wrong.
