Well, it's been a few days now.
How comfortable is the new sofa ... that's the real test.

Well, here it is. Just makes the rug look crappy now though. And the coffin-like interior. This is photoshopped right?

It's very firm, apparently it's pub-standard foam but reviews I've read say that it will develop more give as it settles down in use, but already it's far better than the old one which was getting to the point of being dangerous to sit on. Think I might replace the curtains over the Winter.

Jesus Vince, sitting on that must be like sitting on Nicks knee when he is wearing his kilt!
Oh - I see...

I think it looks good, although I'd go the whole hog and have a new rug too.
I'm rubbish at picking curtains and stuff, so no help there.
When I was eighteen I lived in lodgings at York for a year. My landlady was the widow of a Black Watch R.S.M. and consequently she had curtains made out of the regimental tartan. Very dark but lovely quality.
I personally prefer bright, cheery decor, which is why the sofa looks great to me.

Yes that rug that you robbed from a very old lady really has to go. No self respecting person would want to be buried with that.

That one will be getting laid out on the roof tomorrow, soaked with the hosepipe, given a going-over with a strong Persil and water solution and a scrubbing brush then hosepiped off again and left out to dry. Now I've put the green quilted throw back on the sofa it looks identical to the old sofa, just a lot more comfortable to sit on.

Do the persil bit, drop it down your weed hatch and give it a thrashing. Job sorted. Also works with mattresses, but best choose a clean bit of cut.
