  1. Vintage any day Tracey, the 60's chairs will still be around long after the high street one is in landfill.

  2. Hi Jo - Flo says this is an old pic of her, as last Thursday she had to have her two top canines removed, it was a traumatic op and she wasn't feeling up to a photocall! especially as now she has hardly any choppers left and can't smile very well!

  4. Just taken a great shaped old chair..cost £40 to be recovered in Hungarian linen £40..recovering £250..a bargain I reckon especially as will have resale value whereas new stuff is so hard to get rid off.
    Looking forward to a trip to the Pill factory

  7. so sorry to hear about Flo's teeth...Bruce has a companion pony staying in the stable next door to him, her name is Nerys, she's 34 and has no teeth at all, she just gums and sucks!

    He loves peering through the bars that separate their stables watching her "drink" her very wet tea!

    Have a good week
