LOL MD, how did that realisation come to her? I wish mine would have stayed in bed longer - they don't get the concept of just staying in bed because it's warm, or that they don't have to get up just because they are awake. We haven't got the bed yet, hopefully it wont be too much longer. We were going to ring them towards the end of the month to see if it came in early or not though. I get why you don't want a loft too - we looked at them and you don't gain anything at all by having them. Although we did see one that wasn't all that high - probably 4ft, but all the underbed part was drawers and storage already which would be great to get rid of rollerboxes etc.
