What is it with the ladies ?

Why do sofas and chairs need to be littered with cushions. And why do the cushions need to be taken to the Charity Shop and be replaced by new ones at such frequent intervals.

The same applies to beds – beds have to be heaped with cushions, the obligatory teddy bear and something called a throw. All of which have to be removed each night to make the bed habitable.

And why is it usually my job to dismantle the bed most nights and pile up the debris on a chair. I know the answer – it’s because most nights I go to bed first whilst management watches the TV programs she has stored on the Virgin Tivo box that I don't want to watch.



The only pleasure I get from the routine is to arrange the pile of cushions – and the thing called a throw – in an artistic pile the Royal Academy of Art would admire.



I feel better getting that off my chest – rant over – I’ll now get into bed and read my Kindle.

I (and fortunately, my wife) share your abhorrence of cushions.  :victory:

Hi Al,
We have a couple of bed cushions,  no teddies or throws etc allowed.

I guess more cushions are still on the way, those bright yellow striped ones don’t match the rest of the decor  :sweating: :D

That tickled my fancy..  :rofl: :rofl:

Love your arrangement.   :victory:

I showed Trish, she said "does he want to get in trouble - or what! "  :snigger:

Trish has two extrah pillows that match the doona cover and two cushions, no throw.

I think I've said it before, but can't see the point as when someone new comes to our house she doesn't like me showing them our room anyway!  :crazy1:
