C-H-M has had the honour of a visit from Mr Boden and yesterday we nipped into the Victoria & Albert Museum for the purposes of visual gratification. On our travels, we happened upon the Great Bed of Ware. Mr Boden's immediate observation was "There wasn't one of these in Dorm 4 for those strange bed-parties." The bed can sleep 15, which would have made it ideal, though Mr Boden suspects that the record for a Dorm 4 bed might come close or even exceed that when a pile of diggers really went for it. Given the disparity in size, a dorm 4 bed being, one suspects 6'6'' by 3' maximum, we could have probably got the entire season's cast into the Great Bed of Ware. Mr Boden is included in the photograph for the purposes of scale.
