SATURDAY -The bed came in the afternoon the head board was too big it just wouldn't go up the stairs it almost made it but it was just too tight with the ceiling height and dog leg of the staircase it wouldn't go round the bend so they took it back we will have to go to the furniture outlet and see about another bed we really want an Ottoman we will have to see our options we know we will have to pay extra a return or cancelation fee but so be it , it is what it is .
The old bed is dismantled someone bought it they are collecting it tomorrow so we are currently sleeping with the mattress and topper on the bedroom floor very Japanese .
Helen's brother Martin and his wife Katie came round they bought the day bed of us which was a big waste of space this will free up space for a new base unit and stacker unit with doors and drawers that will sit on top .
SUNDAY - Went to the tip was there just after eight a.m with some bags of rubbish from Helens sort out she did yesterday Went to furniture Village saw the manager explained about the bed we ordered another ottoman it is electric that raises and lowers the bed there is a switch on the side that operates the mechanism all we had to pay was another £95 which I gladly paid I thought there was a 25% charge for returning the other bed so we left happy .
Went to Next Helen bought two ceiling lights then on to Ikea we bought a Hemnes eight drawer unit and two Kallax units with eight drawers and four drawers we also got a corner desk at a cost of £640 Helen had £430 I paid the rest . Went home painted the office wall which the units are going against also fitted three new shades .
