In no time at all we should be ushering in the spring but instead we’re still swaddled in scarves, hats and the obligatory big coats.
The weather hasn’t been all bad news however. It resulted in my best night’s sleep for a decade in fact when Storm Doris came knocking overnight. My terrified daughter ushered me in for some company as the wind whisked through the trees making noises I’ve only ever heard on a low budget horror flick.
I realised her child’s double bed - complete with luxury mattress of course - was made for such moments as I nestled in and told happy stories to help her drift off back to sleep. It seems I got a little too comfortable...When I opened my eyes again it was daylight. I could hear the radio downstairs and the children chattering away with Dad. Then it hit me. I HAD ACTUALLY HAD A LIE IN!! For someone who has lots of trouble sleeping and is usually awake for half the night, this was nothing short of a miracle.
It was a rather strange experience too. I am usually the first to get up, first downstairs, first to open the curtains, fill the kettle and get the place looking homely and ship shape before the rabble rises. But here I was, lounging in this luxury haven of cotton soft bedding and utmost comfort.
I also felt slightly groggy, as if I’d been clubbing ‘til the early hours of the morning. Yes, my hangovers these days result from too much sleep rather than too little. Just when did I cross that line I wonder?
Archie Fairweather Double High Foot End Bed
Anyway, the result of my perfect slumber has been two-fold. Firstly, it reaffirmed my belief that double beds for children are a sensible option to consider for any parent. It also increased my confidence in our luxury children’s mattresses - so much so have I have ordered a king sized version for my very own bed!
So there you have it, our luxury children’s mattresses are the new going out, or the new staying in, or the new black, or whatever it might be these days….
Who cares as long as we all get a decent night’s sleep!
