Cam did your brother turn out okay? LOLSnip
It's not only kids. I was building a custom motorcycle and I needed some nice red leather to cover the seat. Reasoning that the sofa that was leather and was also the right colour was always placed with the back to the wall, if I cut the back out nobody would notice. WRONG. No sooner had I cut it out she decides to have a change around, (why do they do this) and the dastardly deed was uncovered. I was going to get it fixed proper like when I could afford it with a nice bit of material stitched in its place, but never got the chance. Blimey I never heard anybody go off on one like she did. Birthdays for me have never happened since. She also nearly killed me with a joint of beef when the chrome oven shelf morphed itself into a luggage rack for the back of the bike.
Fill the hole in the sofa with compost and plant potatos or tomatoes, might be an idea.
