    As an aside, a double mattress provides an excellent way to clean behind radiators.  All you have to do is let it fall onto its side in the vicinity of the said radiator, and the updraft will bring a shower of fluff out and all over the room.

    So clean radiator but dirty room?
  • All that drama and it comfortably fitted in the boot. It folded in the middle quite easily. 

    I love my Fiesta. Technically a "micro" car but I've managed to fit all sorts in there.

    I know someone who waited till November 5th and gave it to Guy Fawkes and took the metal to the scrap yard after. :D

    Aren't mattresses supposed to be fire-resistant?  Can't see it burning very easily - and even if it did, I bet it made a right old pong :smile:

  • More drama. I put the sofa in the car after being told by the delivery company that the mattress will arrive in an hour. Turns out the delivery company is the most sketchy I've seen and now the order is coming on Wednesday. So, I've had to drag the mattress out of the car, across the pavement, front garden and back on the bed......
