Beatrix, the piano looks brilliant and the fact you bought with inheritance from your Gran is just lovely.

I bought a load of spice jars that fit in the new kitchen drawers. (I am about to rearrange alphabetically).

I've had that before, Baa. Good for a sort of aglio olio pasta.

Ooh, they are very stylish, Est.

I have stopped faffing about looking for a dining table and bought this one. It extends to sit 12, although probably will never need to. It's a bit of a leap for me, as I've always gone for solid wood, but I really like the idea of not needing a protector or place mats all the time. When I got my head around not getting wood, I decided to go for black, so it doesn't look too 'fake', and as the fireplace in the dining room is black, so it should tie in with that.

I have also ordered four of these. I wondered about getting 6, but the point of getting new stuff is that time times out of ten there are only 2 of us eating, and I don't want to clutter the place up with lots of spare chairs.

I'm feeling a bit unsure about all of it, but the bullet is bitten.

Thank you both. I swear there is not a dining table or chair in the world that I haven't considered over the past year :lol:
