I'm needing to replace several items from the cottage and have to do it on a minuscule budget.
The kitchen needs a chair and I've been looking for one from eBay and Facebook for a while.
I found this one in nearby Holywell and it's hardly seen an arse . It only cost me 40£
I was cock a hoop.....even though I couldn't get it in Bluebell!
The woman selling it was clearing some stuff before a permanent move to Spain, so after She gave me tea and biscuits I'd also bought a hardly used microwave oven and a bread bin with a cartoon of a flamingo on it
Hey ho

Hey ho
Interesting chair. If you stare at it long enough the pattern moves! I love it!
ReplyDeleteGood for you! How did you get it home?
ReplyDeleteDid you buy a magic carpet? Does it need collecting for you?
DeleteLol a fruend from the village will collect it
DeleteLovely chair. Hope you enjoy sitting on it!
ReplyDeleteHave you tried freecycle John? Some great free stuff we have had over the years and got rid of stuff on it too. Love the chair.
ReplyDeleteAnd Gum Tree has some great bargains too.
DeleteI just picked up some good plates in my favourite design for $10 thanks to facebook
ReplyDeleteNothing quite as satisfying as finding something one wants and/or needs for a very, very good price.
ReplyDelete'Hardly seen an arse'. Would that I could say that.
ReplyDeleteMe too
DeleteWouldn't mind seeing one. They're thin on the ground here
DeleteI look up and see them in the clouds. It's a type of illness.
DeleteThat's a sweet chair for 40 quid.
ReplyDeleteNice chair. Would have liked a gander at the flamingo bread bin though.
ReplyDeleteIll post it
DeleteShe was a good sales lady. With a cup of tea and biscuits, she sold more items. It is a nice chair for a very good price.
ReplyDeleteLovely chair and great price too.
ReplyDeleteLove the chic chair, the pattern makes my eyes a bit squiffy though. Will suit your lovely kitchen.

I know you don't want to hear anything bad about Chris, but Good God, did he really need to take furniture from the cottage, knowing your situation? Pah! I found it hard to read that you were reduced to wearing a fur-lined hoodie in bed to get warm when you felt ill recently.
ReplyDeletejohn's worn a beanie to bed for years
DeleteLOVE that chair! It will look excellent in your abode.
ReplyDeleteThe chair is lovely; it looks like two smallish pups could curl up comfortably within its arms.
ReplyDeleteI, too, want to see the flamingo-decorated bread bin.
ReplyDeleteVery nice
ReplyDeleteGreat chair, great price too.
ReplyDeleteNice chair! Love the pattern and color and a pink flamingo? Can we see please?
ReplyDeleteLike the chair a lot....looks combo 50's and 70's, kind of art deco.
ReplyDeleteIt's very cool looking love it. But cock and what?
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing find! The chair is gorgeous! Your animals will love the new stylish addition!
ReplyDeleteAnd you got a fantastic deal, with free cookies, and some more awesome finds! Congratulations! If you don't mind knocking people out of the way to get to an item on sale, you'll be ready for Black Friday!
I would also love to see the flamingo find!
Love the Mid-Century Modernity of it.
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting to learn which one of your furry kids makes first claim on it.
ReplyDeleteAwesome find good on you enjoy !!
ReplyDeleteLove it x
ReplyDeleteCool chair.....is it comfy? and will my arse fit next time I visit? x
ReplyDeleteNice chair! Things are looking up! :)
ReplyDeleteSerious chair-envy happening here in Reigate ... enjoy parking your arse on a super purchase!
ReplyDeleteI love it! I'd love to get a new sofa and chairs for our living room. The room is small. The current furniture is large and over-stuffed. Would love to have something soft and comfortable that didn't take up quite so much space. If you find anything, just throw it all on top of Bluebell and drive on over!
ReplyDeleteLove the chair, keep a look out on facebook market place for furniture too.
ReplyDeleteNice chair, very on-trend.
ReplyDeleteI love buying stuff at sales! One time my Dad said if he drew my name for Christmas he was going to buy me something new! I said, “why?” Love the chair!
ReplyDeleteLooks like one of those refurbished chairs from Money For Nothing. They go for silly prices, you got a bargain there.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice find! Moving sales are a great way to get things. -Jenn
ReplyDeleteLove it ... bargain š
ReplyDeleteNice chair! And good for you for putting some reusable items to good use rather than buying new.
ReplyDeleteThat's a rather wonderful chair. Stylishly geometric.
ReplyDeleteLike it! HAs a retro look/feel about it. Perfect find!
