Thanks for all replies. I am writing this from my Laptop which is sitting very nicely on my "old dear" table, care of A****n.
DH kept offering to bring me a cup of cocoa and my tablets - I don't drink cocoa and am not on any tablets! I really worried that getting a little table would be the first step on the slippery slope to being elderly when in actual fact it just does a job and keeps me sitting upright instead of at an awkward angle. Should have got one sooner.
AIBU To Be So Annoyed at the Stupidity of This
