Don't know if this was directed at me, but if so, thanks.

Haha. Yeahhhh.... suppose I'm peculiar like that. I LOVE books like those though.

Allright, this might sound bull****ty and slimy, but I'm absolutely serious when I say that, if I were to be in a home with those books in the bookcase, I would want to know what person was behind them. They look interesting.
What are they about?

2 beds! One for me, because I needed one (I have been sleeping on a mattress on the floor for close to 2 years now I reckon... and then as I was in the shop getting ready to pay, my mum asked me to buy her a single bed version of the mattress I was getting. They didnt do it in a single, so when we got home I measured up the room, and ended up going back to the shop and buying her a new double bed with the mattress.

I've been planning on doing up the top floor of our house for a while, this was the first step in that direction. Luckily the shop I bought both beds from is a part of the company I work for, so I ended up with 20% discount on them, plus they were priced lower than advertised anyway, so I've saved about £450 on the two beds.

Soon enough, THIS will be where the magic happens:



Ladies, form an orderly queue.
