Sorry.  I was called away.

I've tried being gentle - no luck.  It seems as if it might be just one particular slat (the third or fourth I think) that seems to cause the trouble.  It doesn't look any different to the others.  I'll try a bit of lubrication on the runners, see if it'll carry the lubricant down to the 'sticky bit'.  If it doesn't work, I think I'll need a bit of lubrication myself!

Hi.

Thanks for the tips.  I don't really want to use solid wood instead of slats because I think that the cushions 'breathe' better when on slats.  I noticed on an older caravan that I had (which used the table as the centre-filler) that in the morning there were often damp patches on the table - and no, I'm not incontinent!

I don't know if pulling the drawers out will let me get at the slats, I'll give it a go.
