This is classic! I remember my grandma calling the couch a "davenport". I still laugh thinking about it. We had to have her tell us just what a "davenport" was!
My grandma wouldn't allow kids on the "Davenport"! I actually never sat on the "Davenport" at my Grandma's house my entire life!
It was a fancy rig tho, suitable for looking at, and watching one of my uncles get swatted up side the head for parking his carcass on it
Must have been a cootie thing, because Women were the only ones allowed to sit on the "Davenport"!
Seating was limited to chairs for us rat's, but no way was anyone brave enough to sit in my Grandpa's La-Z-Boy Recliner!
