We have a funny layout in our house.
One room downstairs which leads out to garden.
First floor is lounge and kitchen and second floor is bedrooms and bathroom.
The lounge is sort of L shape with the small bottom bit of the L supposed to be a dining area.
We can barely fit a table in there that's useable that fits 4 people. We are a family of 5!
We've squeezed in a table that fits 6 so we can have people over but have to keep the table pushed up against one wall and then drag it out and move things around whenever we Wang to use it. It's annoying and not practical.
Have decided that choices are either get a nice small 4 person table that will fit in the space without having to move anything when we use it (for adults type meals with another couple once kids in bed) PLUS a folding kind of table to bring out to go in lounge for all the kids if we have another family over for Sunday lunch etc
OR
change downstairs room (currently playroom) into a dining room and have a decent size (up to 8) table in there and use the L bit in the lounge as a play room
type area
sorry for long winded boring post but wondered what other people would do??
