LET'S TALK ABOUT COUCHES

 Not these:






They are coaches that are the symbol for Richard's Bass Bag although, in recent times this image is more apt:







Couches are long bits of furniture that men like to sit on and women like to buy. That's a seemingly symbiotic arrangement but ... looks can be deceiving.

Men like to sit on couches meaning that comfort is a priority.

Women like to look at couches which means that shape, colour and ambiance are the priorities with comfort coming way down on the list.

Men take a practical view when selecting and purchasing (a theoretical situation only as it is women who make the final selection and close the deal) so, after comfort - price, size, weight, manouverability and the logistics of moving from one house to another are important considerations. None of those ever feature with women.

Should this post be successful and liked by readers, further discussion on the differences in approaches to life by women as opposed to men may be discussed.

Robert chuckles. Even if you did get your way you would never hear the end of how it isn't the right colour and looks ugly. I guarantee you would be taking it to the Sallies and having to paying for a new one within two months. This goes with pretty much everything in the house. Just smile and agree.

Richard chuckles too, but with better grammar.
