    Well since you've mentioned that and we're currently talking off-topic, I'd actually come to the conclusion that you were a bloke :eek: but since you've now admitted that you're not, I presume you are a lesbian :confused: .

    If you're not then can you please explain why you thanked and agreed with me that Seema Shah was hot in the Sky News thread on the House Prices forum about 2 weeks ago? :confused:

    We'll track you down and call you a f47 bar steward - and post pictures of cakes, cheesecakes and other home-baked yummies!

    Cheescake???????:confused:

    Yes you are probably right. I have a friend who really does know his stuff when it comes to stereo equipment. He used to love going into the electrical chain stores and ripping the staff to bits because they didn't have a clue what they were selling, and just made it up as they went along........I'm tempted to do that in bed stores, but I'm not that cruel.

    I just bought a bed yesterday! I researched it very well and got a very good deal. Coming on Monday. Can't sleep in it till I get to the new house though, so it's staying in the garage for now :(

    Trouble is Lilly J if you have waited until Monday you would have saved a packet. The latest figures from Halibeds shows nationwide drops of 59% this month. Just log on to rightbeds, that will prove the point!

    Lol really I should have waited for another 6 months, that's what the sensible people are doing. Sleeping on a roll matt is the way forward. In fact I heard that my bed (and mattress for that matter) won't be worth as much once I've slept in it.

    There are too many thankable posts on this thread, so can everyone just assume I've thanked them.

    I sold my bed last year and am sleeping in the bath at the moment. It's not very comfortable, but I expect to make a tidy profit.
