TAKE THAT SHIT TO THE-BRITS.COM

[Jimster]

IKEA were good when they were cheap but their prices have crept right up to the point where they are not doing you any favours on the big stuff. Their food is good value on Wed nights but you are probably not looking to sleep on a bed of meatballs asue:





IKEA sizes are all unique to them too, so once you are in for the bed frame, then you need their mattress and under sheets. Their mattress guarantee is 10 years but the small print speaks of not sitting on the edge of the mattress (which of course is where all the wear is) - ridiculous.





I'd go to a shop, find the bed you like, and then hit the internet for the best price on it. You'll find that like everything else, the same few beds from the same Chinese manufacturers are sold on over here under slightly different names and wildly different prices. We are currently on the hunt for one of them king-size affairs where the base lifts up like some Bond submarine and swallows hella cushions, books, and all other manner of bedroom detritus*.





The matress is looking more expensive than the bed. You would be wanting pocket-sprung for decent comfort, where the springs themselves are contained in a pocket thus:

It's all for the wifey really, I can sleep on a f*cking clothesline and am usually teleported into the land of nod within seconds of my head touching the pillow.












































*Nowt kinky, we are married...

Thanks for the help, most appreciated.





Cause of the lack of choice locally, I wanted to find a frame online, then by the mattress locally. I actually tried ordering a bed from Muji Doc, but they said they'd have to charge me ??300 for delivery. One of the many drawbacks of living in the countryside.

www.warrenevans.com is usually highly rated, well it always enblazons their adverts with awards they have won and stuff.





I've got a memory foam mattress, and yes it makes me sweat like a nonce. I am thinking of replacing it, or at the very least getting a wool 'topper' thing which apparently helps a lot.

 

[Okem]

Thanks Rich.

 

[Okem]

Yay! I am now the proud purchaser of a warrenevans bed. I join the esteemed ranks of Jazzie B, Perry Fenwick and Simon Callow.

I can stop boring you about it now. thanks again.

 

[Rich45s]

My recommendation and your subsequent purchase goes some way to alleviating the guilt I have from pissing up the front of their back of Clapham Junction shop one drunken night (I wasn't aiming for it, I just couldn't get any further)





Kieron Dyer & Joe Cole, I predict a long spell on the treatment table after a few nights on it

Yukk. If this is a reunion inspired design, does the rest of the band a bit of an injustice, no?








Scott Parker. Skel laughed hard when I suggested he could be what England need, but I guess that could've been some anti-West Ham sentiment. Seems to be doing the business for Spurs and England. Anybody catch the game last night? Listened to some of it on 5 Live, and the commentators weren't too sure if Spurs were amazing or Villa just shocking. Something about Heskey playing on the wing, and as left back?

 

[Jimster]

To hear 'Arry talk, you would have thought it was a 5-1 tonking or summat. Similar to the one City dealt Spuds last time out.

We are on a real good run and if we continue the form that we are in now we will win the league.

I will let that slide, like his grip on reality at the moment, and put it down to medication (he's just come back from a heart-op IIRC).

 

[skel]

Gary Speed WTF

 

[neil_something]

I can't quite believe it. Sad and shocking.

 

[skel]

Dude never come across as some laugh-a-minute, glass-half-full glee merchant, but damn.





Dour, serious, introspective is the three word summary I would conjure if asked, but to top yourself....damn.





On the Warren Evans bed front, bought two of them from the Kings Cross store back in circa '88. They outlasted two women and one still goes strong in the 'rents spare room. A good buy from the days when stripped pine was the interior design crack du jour.


I'll confess to thinking they went out of business in the early 90s.





Scott Parker LOL. He's like a 2011 Barry Venison.


If he's the answer Duder, you is asking the wrong question.


Maybe he's the necessary yin to the Modric yang, but still.


He ain't making a world 11, is he?





Now when's Paul goint to make his Soundcloud beats downloadable?


Why is Duder so lazy as to leave Subliminal Massage round 2 undelivered?


What will it take to get Shears and Neil S to send me a cd of their stuff?


Talmbout Moheezy, My Mind, California male AND female versions, Another Song I'll Never Finish.... I need that stuff, it downloaded poorly and I digs it on the Euphoric Lunchtime Strolling tip.

 

[Lefty]

cool story bro,


you are worthless you piece of shit,

 

[Lefty]

SKEL is a piece of Shit.

 

[Jimster]

Having met SKEL in the real world, I beg to differ.

 

[Junior]

Yeah Skel is good people, always been a genuine pleasure meeting up with him.





The man is known to go against the strut collective mind on occasion but bit confused about but don't really see anything out of order?





Anyway, still shocked about Gary Speed, seems like such a tragic waste. Hoping against hope that the recent phones-gate or whatever you want to call it will force the media to slow their roll a bit on their quest to unearth reasons in his personal life. Doubt it though.

 

[Jimster]

I am guessing the tragic suicide is a response to him getting some very bad news indeed, perhaps something about to blow up in the red-tops vis-a-vis some scandal or revelation of some human trait. It does not appear that he was in the midst of some form of depression. I cannot image the mental state he must have been in to take such drastic action.





He seemed a dependable if not stellar talent, and a decent dude. Damn.





R.I.P.

 

[Junior]

Yeah would certainly be the logical reason for what everyone seems to be saying is a sudden and unexpected end to someone who appeared to be enjoying life. All I can hope is that they let the dust settle a little.
