Slog

After months of looking for a sofa, we finally bought one today. And even better, it has a delivery time of 5-6 weeks (rather than the usual 12) meaning that we should be sitting in comfort before the end of July. What a long slog that was, we’ve been absolutely everywhere looking for something that would fit the bill and it got tiring and annoying a long time ago. At the end of the day we ended up buying one in the nearest furniture store to the current flat, Reid. In fact, it’s within walking distance. This is the result of our hunting. You wouldn’t think that sitting on sofas all day would be tiring, but you have it oh so wrong.

As a double header to make the day even more productive, we also bought a bed, which will actually be delivered the day after I get keys. The perfect timing continues. Finding a bed wasn’t quite as hard, I had a reasonably good idea in my head already what I was looking for, it was just a matter of hunting it out. Turns out I bought the most expensive bed in the shop (didn’t find that out until afterwards), but sometimes quality comes at a price. And it wasn’t anywhere near the £7000 bed that we saw in And So To Bed. If your bed is going to cost the same as some of the cars in the street, I’m going to suggest you’ve bought the wrong one.
