Beds

[Carvalho Diablo]

I absolutely love my bed.

 

It's a king sized divan, about 10 years old, got a new orthopedic mattress about 2 years ago, none of this footboard, planks or memory foam nonsense, my bed is just as comfy as fuck.

 

Feather pillows, big heavy feather duvet, I'm off up there in a few mnutes.

I have a 1500 spring super king size bed. It's like being on a frickin' water bed. Best night's sleep I've ever had.

The amount of time you spend in it it's worth spending the money to get the best you can afford.

This.

 

We have a super kingsize with a squillion springs and a quilt top. I would never leave it if I had a choice.

Like CD we've an orthopaedic matress, king size oak frame.

 

At the inlaws we have a memory foam matress and it's horrible. It's hot, sweaty, uncomfortable and crap for shagging on.

Never ever been on a water bed. Can't imagine they'd be for me either.

 

Tried out the full on memory foam mattress and pillow combo several years ago, and hated them. The price of them didn't help either !

I built my bed out of 15 Ikea coffee tables and my mattress I bought off ebay after a recommendation from here, it's a combination of pocket springs and memory foam and it's fucking great.

No bounce? Never slept or shagged on one myself, but I can imagine it wouldn't be too good.

I'm of the 'pay as much as you can for a good bed' school. Love mine, it's wicked comfy.

Was thinking about shelling out on one of these...

Pricey, but I've got some sofa's from Indigo and they make quality gear.

Whats the "no footend" thing all about?

I'm 6'4" and I like to be able to dangle my feet over the bottom.

You just sink into it, no good for thrust or rhythm.

I think I remember you building that Remmie. Didn't you post a picture of it on here, when you had 2 birds in it with you ?!

Part of being good in the sack is becoming one with the movement of the springs. Little known fact.

Ah right, it just means theres no wood at the end of the mattress. Sound.

It seems like size does matter.

I never did post a picture in the end, as I haven't got round to finishing the lip surround. I should do really, as I was right about it making a good sturdy bed.

[General Dryness]

Whats more worrying is that CD remembers seeing a picture of Remmie in bed with two birds.

Remmie is a leg.

Your own bottom or the bottom of another?

2 single duvets instead of one double one. I thought this was strange at first but it's actually ace

Its a great idea. No fucking about getting the covers pulled off you and waking up freezing at 3am.

We got a new mattress when we redid our bedroom at the end of last year. We went to John Lewis and the salesbod spent ages with us while we tried the various different kinds. There is definitely something in the pay as much as you can afford but getting to try the different kinds was invaluable.

The pocket sprung mattress we ended up with is absolutely fabulous. Its really thick, giving it a feeling of real luxury and there is none of that 'ripple' effect when one or other of us moves.

Buying a water bed was the beginning of the end of the relationship with my ex wife. We just drifted apart.
