A Bit Like the Flintstones - This Bed Rocks

I have never really given a lot of thought to my bed. I just thought a bed was a bed was a bed. I've been to posh hotels and slept in some very, very nice beds, I have also been in hostels and slept in some very, very nasty beds, and I've slept on sofas, in tents and on floors. I'm lucky, I always seem to get a good night's sleep. So when my girlfriend and I took the plunge and decided to move in together I just assumed we'd use my bed as she rented a fully furnished flat and didn't own her own bed.

Well never before have I seen a foot so firmly put down. We nearly called the whole thing off! She was absolutely insistent that my bed would not do. She had a point emotionally - there have been other girls in it, if that was the problem I would have relented easier, but she said it was a rubbish bed. I had become very attached to my bed in the four years that I had owned it. It was my first ever online purchase, I have a lot of good memories on that bed... less said the better I fear. But there was nothing I could do and nothing I could say, the bed was dead.

So we went bed shopping. For my lovely girlfriend, this was a very serious mission. Hours of research, reams of printouts, articles cut out of many a magazine and newspaper and a month of traipsing around furniture shops. I won't exaggerate: I hated it. And I was beginning to hate her!

Anyway we finally settled on a bed with a Sealy Mattress, a Sealy Posturepedic Mattress to be exact, not too shabby. You know I'm almost tempted to tell you it was worth the month of pain in order to finally sleep on this piece of kit. It is fantastic, I have never slept better and I have never woken up so energised.

Unfortunately a couple of months later my girlfriend and I split up, and she took the bed. I don't know what upset me more. Actually I do, it was the loss of the bed. The following weekend I picked up a brand new Sealy Posturepedic Mattress. Guess what I picked up the weekend after?

Conclusion

If a woman tells you to get rid of your bed, let that be a warning to you. However, I would advise you to humour her and just do it. Forget about all the shopping around though - just get a Sealy Posturepedic mattress, class bit of kit. But keep an eye on any woman who makes you get rid of your bed.
