The new sofa will look lovely for a long time but will not have the spillage of memories on it ..like the old one. <br />I can't throw away my old one.

And I was very tempted by a sofa in the sales until I came home and remembered that we now have a new puppy with very sharp teeth who is continuing on with the damage wreaked by the last puppy. I have visions of me eventually sitting on a heap of sticks surrounded by dog hair.<br /><br />Pomona xPomonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18399181139470676975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831075779288351551.post-26189476641400073212011-08-09T04:53:36.160+01:002011-08-09T04:53:36.160+01:00Basically what this tells me is that you people ea...Basically what this tells me is that you people eat and drink a lot of really yummy stuff at your house.

Trust me. As the recipient of endless cast offs and the mother of two boys, I can attest to the thrill of a virgin settee. Whoo!<br />May I also suggest that no chewed and half digested chicken legs be sequestered between the arms and cushions?
