Is it just my eyes or is the bedroom in this showing two double beds pushed together????

    But, wouldn't you just push the beds apart an one of the party disappear down the gap?:o

    And, tbh, If thats what I were doing in those beds I'd want matching linen on them.

    My first thought was a family that was into co-sleeping/family bed (either out of choice or desperation) ...

    But there is no evidence of anyone living in that flat, let alone two adults and several small children. VERY strange ...

    Perhaps the wall between double bedroom 1 and double bedroom 2 is invisible, a bit like the invisible chips my daughter uses to coax my son off his computer and downstairs ...

    I would!

    It makes my 6ft bed look teeny!!!!

    I did once push a 6ft and a 3ft bed together to make a 9ft bed.

    There was only me in it - I kept it like that for about 6 weeks :rotfl:

    Are you exceptionally tall, or do you have a weight problem?

    I'm quite big at 6'4" and about 17 stone, but don't really need a 9' bed...

    I'm 5'9" but I like to spread out!!! (And I'm a wriggly sleeper)

    If I recall correctly, I did it for a bet.

    It's the only bed I've never fallen out of!

    It's two or more renters sharing a room.
    I'm not cynical I'm realistic :p

    Ah, I see, clear as day.

    I had wondered if it had anything to do with your handle.
