A good night's sleep

In the new house, we have a room that will double up as our study and guest room.  Since it will be a study much more than a guest room, we didn't want a full on bedroom suite.  I am not a huge fan of sofa beds as they are comfortable neither as sofas nor beds.  I was worried about getting a blow up mattress since sometimes we have guests from America who stay for a week or so and I didn't want to be responsible for ruining their backs for life.

I got fairly excited, though, when I was browsing the John Lewis website (as you do) and discovered aerobeds, which are basically high end air mattresses.

As afternoon slipped into evening yesterday, my very lovely sister-in-law seemed so very comfy that we invited her to stay over.  It's a rare treat to get an extended visit with her - she has a high-flying career and does a lot of travelling so catching up is always exciting.  So she had the pleasure of being the first one to try out our snazzy new self-inflating guest bed.  Her verdict was that it was really comfy, though a little cold to sleep on.  I confess, that may have been my fault as the heavy-duty duvet was in Itsyboo's room and he had already gone to sleep for the night.

I'm glad to know we will have a stylish study and even more happy to know that we can put our guests up in comfort.  Just wait till we tell them we have a hot tub in the new house, too.
