we may get a conservatory so it would go in there, it is a nice couch inb a light coloured suede fabric, just hard to keep clean with the baby, whereas the new one is leather so easily wipeable

I would be confident enough doing it, but I would want one side of it to be brick quite high up so that I only have 2 glazed sides and the glazed roof, that way I could hang another tv in there

I dont think the brits or spaniards will cause much trouble it will be the italians

what annoys me though, if it was the brits who behaved like the turks/italians then we would be banned straight away no questions asked
