There are some pieces of advice that have stayed with me because they have just made sense.
One of them is, always get a good pair of shoes and a good bed because if you are not in one, you are in the other. This is partly why you will never catch me in a stiletto or anything that has a kitten heel.
So while I spend my days comfortably in flats, my mattress had come to the end of its life and our bed frame was too big for our room since moving home. In anticipation, I had been browsing shops and the internet for weeks and oh my lord were they coming up expensive.
