A good nights kip

[postman]

I was surprised to find after Googling,that weight is not a problem,with the water.It seems it is spread over the floor more evenly.Crashing through the ceiling is just a myth.

Long years ago,myself and a girl friend were escorted from Fenwicks in Newcastle for "testing" a water bed.The fact that my actual girlfriend was present,as was Gills brother,and the fact that Fenwicks is most definitely not "that" sort of place,may lead you to assume,correctly that we were merely bouncing about.Good fun it was,but not the sort of behaviour the management wished to encourage,particularly in a family shopping environment.So in came the heavies and next thing,we were back on Northumberland St.....just the two of us! But I often wonder how many accounts from Darras Hall were closed that afternoon.

You'd have made a cracking Christmas window for them though

I hadn't heard about Mrs D either. Very sorry to hear. And as others have said, I hope the new bed helps.

I have visions of BigCat jumping up, purring, kneading his claws om aforementioned water bed
Let us know how Mrs. Drago's back is in the morning.

I am sure waterbeds have advanced in the thirty years since I slept on one. My experience was no advertisement. It was a large bed, my partner wouldn't get on and when I turned over a wave of water would go from me to the edge of the bed and then return. Waiting for the returning wave was unsettling so I moved to the sofa with her.

A very, very pleasant nights kip. I can only presume Mrs Drago liked it as she was up before me and I've not seen her yet. Let's just hope she hasn't left me!

Only downside is that i'll no longer be able to indulge in my favourite hobby of whittling statues in bed using a drill and dremmel.

You could always take up flower pressing instead

Off topic but related...

A few years ago, the display had several, er, suggestive elements. Nothing changed for about a week, then someone must have noticed and hasty alterations were made. I assume a disgruntled employee, but never did find out how it actually happened.

After I damaged my spine and was in hospital I woke up one morning and I had a water bed
.......but the nurse said “these things do happen when you have a spinal injury”

Does this explain the car sale?

 

[Profpointy]

Anyone remember the water bed episode of Steptoe and Son? Harold had been thwarted in a romance when his potential girlfried diacovered bed-bugs in the bed. Harold chucked the bed iut then bought a water bed. The old man was later sat on the bed and used his knife to sharpen a pencil, with predictable outcome. His repair woth needle and thread wasn't a total solution.

Youre quite right!Bainbridges would have been really jealous!Mind you,I doubt we could have competed with the quality of Fenwicks windows,the little folk in the Christmas windows don't have to keep moving and they never get queasy!
