Don't know when this stupid craze started, but it is getting out of hand.

All over the sofa and now all over the bloody bed.

Got two bloody cushions on the bed and 3 pillows each.  Have to take two cushions off and two pillows just to get into bed.

Buggered if I am going to put them back in the morning, though.

Do any of the cushions say "love" and "home" on them and do you have some little slogan like "a house is a thing of love" or something in lettering on the wall?

I hate that! I consider them "house tattoos" LaughWhoopsBlush.

You have your kopfkissen in your Schlafzimmer. = Sleep-room.

They are indeed very logical people, I once logged onto betfair.de, placed a bet, and it flashed up "Achtung! Scheissebet! Muggenpunter!"

I can't decide if I prefer pillows or cushions.

I'll have to sleep on it.

Marti Pellow out of Wet Wet Wet
Marco Polo out of Venice
Titus Pullo out of that Rome series on BBC2
Jackie Pallo out of 4 pm on World of Sport

Pallo, Pellow, Polo, Pullo. Yet never a celebrity Pillow, unless you count Peter Cushin' out of Hammer Horror.

What do the Germans call a cushion in snooker?

Yea but cushion as in OUR word for cushion isn't banden, it'll be bands (which they kind of are)?
German for a normal cushion is .. Kissen or Polster. As you said!

Marti Polster of course being singer of a German tribute band called "Nass Nass Nass".
