Are we sitting comfortably?

This is the old lounge suite.  The Practical Reinventor has always hated it.  It's not fitted into any house in which the reinventors have lived and it dominated (and not in a good way) Marmalade Cottage.

And this is how much space we discovered when we removed it.

And the new rug

And the new lounge suite with Creative Reinventor ensconced

And suddenly there was enough space to put up the Christmas tree!
