Little bit at a time mate. I still have my second hand table that I've had for 25 years. My couches are 18 years old. Due for new ones too. I don't know what else to say other than I hope things get better for you.
Yeah I got a bit excited for a minute there! Just about all of my furniture is second hand or found on hard rubbish and spruced up a bit, and tbh I don't mind it too much. There's a very particular satisfaction to be had from furnishing your abode for bugger all money. New couches would be great for a change, but one advantage is not going mental at the kids for spilling something because the furniture is worn to start with. I can think about it more when they get older. May we both one day have new couches! Raises glass gesture
Hear hear to new couches some day 🍺
