Have you knackered yours with too much action?

Home at Last.
Comfysleep. Opposite what was The Gala Bingo in Hove.
Brought mine from there, some two years ago. Handmade and delivered in a week. Also took the old mattress away.
They advertise in The Leader most weeks.

I'm moving into a new flat on Thursday, and just decided that my crappy bed has had it.
So I'm pushing the boat out and buying a 6ft wide one. Want to get a quality mattress so 'too much action' isn't even a issue.
It's DAMNED expensive mind.

I used to have a memory foam matress and they're unbeatable.
Had to get the current one specially made as I've a 7ft bed.

More to the point, what have you done with your fabulous lesbian avatar ? I passed many a long afternoon at work just gazing at it.

Go to Allied Carpets and get advice.
Then get the same one on the net.

All you really need to know is that beds with pocketed springs hold their shape better, and the fatter you are the firmer mattress you will require.
Never buy a cheap mattress if you value your health. A good mattress should support your back in its natural shape - which is curved.
Mattresses should be replaced every ten years.
The absolute best mattresses are made by VI-Spring.

Got a 'Dunlopillo' matress which is well comfy and has kept it's shape and not not sagged at all in 2 years, cost us around £600 for a standard double size.
Do not get an IKEA matress they are crap, even the most expensive one.

If you can afford foam it's the dogs. My ex did it on the cheap yesterday and went to the foam store in Brighton where she got a double bed-sized piece cut to her specs for £100 all in.

Spend as MUCH as you can afford, it is well worth it. I spent £600 on a foam orthopedic mattress and its amazing, best sleep I have ever had.

Allfers of Croydon wil be selling them cheap!!!
Verity: That's without the mattress, of course.
Husband: How much is that?
Verity: Er, Mr Lambert will be able to tell you that. Lambert! Could you
show these twenty good people the dog kennels, please?
Husband: Dog kennels? No, no, the mattresses!
Verity: I'm sorry, you have to say 'dog kennel' to Mr Lambert, because if you
say 'mattress' he puts a bucket* over his head. I should have
explained. Otherwise he's perfectly all right.
Husband: Oh. Ah. I see. Er, excuse me, could you show us the dog kennels,
please, hm?
Lambert: Dog kennels?
Husband: Yes, we want to look at the dog kennels, hm.
Lambert: Ah yes, well that's the pets' department, second floor.
Husband: No, no, no, we want to see the DOG KENNELS.
Lambert (irritated): Yes, second floor.
Husband: No, we don't want to see dog kennels, it's just that Mr Verity said
that...
Lambert: Oh dear, what's he been telling you now?
Husband: Well, he said we should say 'dog kennels' instead of saying
'mattresses'.
(Lambert puts bucket on his head)
Husband: Oh dear. Hello? Hello? Hello?
Verity: (approaching) Did you say 'mattress'?
Husband: Well, yes, er...
Lambert: (muffled) I'm not coming out!
Verity: I did *ask* you not to say 'mattress', didn't I?
Husband: But I mean, er...
Lambert: (muffled) I'm not!
Husband: Oh.
Verity: Now I've got to get him to the fish tank and sing.
Husband: Oh.
Verity: (sings) And did those feet, in ancient time...
Another assistant (John Cleese): (walking up, hearing the singing) Oh dear,
did somebody say mattress to Mr Lambert?
Husband: Yes, I did.
(Assistant gives nasty look at Husband)
Verity: (still singing) ...walk upon England's mountains green...
(Assistant joins in) ...and was the Holy Lamb of God...
(Lambert removes bucket; Verity and Assistant immediately stop singing;
assistant leaves.)
Verity: He should be all right now, but don't...you know...*don't*!
Husband: No, no. (to Lambert) Excuse me, could we see the dog kennels please?
Lambert (irritated): Yes, pets department, second floor.
Husband: No, no, no. Those dog kennels, like that. You see?
Lambert: Mattresses?
Husband: (relieved) Yes.
Lambert: But if you want a mattress, why not say 'mattress'?
Husband: (nervously) Ha ha, I mean...
Lambert: I mean, it's a little confusing for me when you say 'dog kennel' if
you want a mattress. Why not just say 'mattress'?
Husband: But you put a bucket over your head last time we said 'mattress'.
(Lambert puts the bucket over his head again)
Verity: (running on the scene again) Oh dear! (sings) And did those feet...
Assistant: (to Husband) We *did* ask!
(duet) ...in ancient times,
walk upon England's mountains green...
(singing continues throughout the next few lines of dialogue)
Yet another assistant (Michael Palin): (running in)
Did somebody say 'mattress' to Mr Lambert?
(Cleese points angrily towards the Husband and Wife)
Verity: *Twice*!
Other Assistant: (shouting throughout the store) Hey, everybody! Somebody
said 'mattress' to Mr Lambert -- *twice*!
(joins in the singing)
(Organ music swells and they carry on singing)
Verity: It's not working, we need more!
(The entire Mormon Tabernacle Choir begins to sing in the background. Sounds
of water splashing; eventually Lambert removes the bucket again and they stop
singing)
Lambert: I'm sorry, can I help you?
Wife: (brightly) We want a mattress!
(Lambert puts the bucket over his head again. Verity, husband and assistants
all groan and glare accusingly at wife)
Wife: But it's my only line!!!
Husband: How much is that?
Verity: Er, Mr Lambert will be able to tell you that. Lambert! Could you
show these twenty good people the dog kennels, please?

Spend as much as you can afford. I invested in a Dunlopillo foam one a few years ago and it is still going well (or so I am told!). Foam mattresses do tend to be warmer than conventional ones, so if you don't like being too warm, it may not be for you.
