My mum used to shuffle the furniture around regularly, less often now she can't do it on her own. Their rooms are easier to change.
I wish I could rearrange our furniture but there seems to be only one way everything fits. I have to contend myself with rearranging the ornaments on the rare occasions that I dust.

I built this house 8 years ago every room has been decorated at least 4 times and some 8
:eek:
And you still have time left to post on CC? :laugh:
 
Newer mind fiddling with the furniture, when you can have moving walls
Sure I've seen that a similar type of thing was being built in Wales. Basically a row of terraced units, you buy your house by the unit, something like 1 unit gives you enough space for two people, 2 units make it family sized and the rooms are similarly flexible on where the walls go.

Not that I wish to doubt the creativity or brilliance of my adopted homeland, but if there's anything even remotely similar to the Rietveld-Schröderhuis anywhere in Wales I will eat my hat.

If you get so pi$$ed you can't remember where you were the night before it seems to shuffle itself. My most memorable one was waking up one morning freezing cold and wondering where the blanket had gone from the bed. My mum found it on the landing where it was still smouldering slightly.

Must have been a case of spontaneous combustion during the night.

Reminds me of a trick played occasionally at college many, many years ago. If two people from the same hall of residence went home for the weekend and if their rooms occupied the same position in different floors - rare but did happen - we'd swap the rooms round, intercept the victims on their way back and take them to the pub or SU bar and get them so inebriated they wouldn't notice the change round!

One guy had a flat roof directly below his room and only one lot of furniture needed moving. I forget the outcome but I know he didn't see the joke.

I don't have a wife. Is it possible to get one's furniture shuffled in spite of this setback?
me neither. I did switch the arm chair and sofa around a couple of weeks ago... the dust and debris i found beneath them was shocking.
