Wheaton’s Way: Knees up, Vicki Brown
I’ve been putting it off for a while, but there’s no avoiding it – we need to get a replacement couch/settee/chesterfield/sofa … so many terms to choose from.
I say ‘replacement’ rather than ‘new’, because we have cats. Many’s the time in a furniture showroom I’ve looked longingly at a snow-white, down-stuffed sectional, nearly drowning in throw-pillows, wishing it could be mine. But such would be the path of folly. It would barely be settled in the living room before Ziggy, Houdini, Grumbles, Leo, Butterscotch, Tango, LeeLoo, Sam, Millie and Chiqui descended upon it, claws extended, eager to test the tensile strength of the beautiful fabric.
