thanks for your suggestions. well we only have 2 rooms, bedroom and frontroom, no guest room. also no carpets of any kind as all the floors are lino. but yes naive it does sound quite cozy what you used as a bed.
i think i'll just have to try the air mattress option again..
live i never tried febreze, only a non-brand version, and that was just as chemical as the air mattress ;-) maybe febreze is more natural?
lola i like your signature by the way, had to read it a couple of times before i got it
