She may have only had her old sofas professionally cleaned once or twice a year (weren’t they leather?), but if the new ones are in this state after only a few months, I guess she’ll need it doing more often. That it turn will completely ruin the sofas in no time, because as much as it’s great to be clean it really does damage the top pile. It’s ok though, because it will give her a great excuse to replace them. In due course these sofas will be replaced for a dark/grey colour but she’ll never admit that it was because choosing white furniture with 5 kids (inc. Harry), 2 dogs, a “feral” cat and TanJoe was a terrible idea.
