London, October 21: The average family sofa sees 293 spats, 1,369 cuddles and 1,600 spillages during its eight-year life, according to a UK survey.

Mike Pickard, of home insurer esure, commissioned the poll of 3,000 households.

The survey also discovered that kids lose four toys per month down the back of a sofa.

“If the nation’s sofas could speak they would certainly have a lot of tales to tell,” the Daily Express quoted Pickard as saying. (ANI)
