RoysPlayThing 0 #6 March 1, 2005 OMG! Dude! get the Queen!! The double really sucks... and especially if you are with some S.O.. It really sucks to be knocked off the bed or to just wanna go to the other double bed for more roomy comfort and a better night sleep. _______________________________________________ My mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open.

kansasskydiver 0 #9 March 1, 2005 Cali KING is the best bed for the bucks. You can roll her over 3 times and still be one your side of the bed<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tmontana 0 #10 March 1, 2005 Yeah i'd love to get the king but cash is tight, we actually shouldn't be going on this trip, but nine inch nails is playing in chicago and we both love their music and have never seen them in concert.___________________________________________ "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weegegirl 2 #15 March 1, 2005 Then again... a double would mean extra cuddling if you are with the right person. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skytash 0 #19 March 1, 2005 perhaps just another one of those differences between the UK and US, but here bed names from smaller to larger is: single, queen (a single and a half) double king (a double and a half) based on that, I decided to book doubles rather than queens 'cos I figured queens were smaller than doubles - should have asked here first shouldn't I tashDon't ever save anything for a special occasion.

kingbunky 3 #20 March 1, 2005 usually you will find that you get one queen, or two doubles for the same price. which you choose depends on your plans for your travelling companion.
