I’ve wanted one of these metal trunks for years and today I finally bought one! I chose the green, for Liv’s bedroom.

Oh thank you. I was not, J announced he was spending the day on it on Sat (MY READING CHAIR) and then when he vacated it, the cats piled on. I haven't had a proper sit on it yet. :lg:

I love the William Morris print (s), I was very close to getting willow bough curtains but felt it was just too far into Giles and Mary, and I can be a bit Mary at the best of times. :)) A print though, that is a different matter.

Our new table came! I love it. S isn't nuts about the yellow but I bullied him into it tbf. We're using the existing chairs we've got for now at least, with the bench the table came with.

Thanks! I'm so pleased with it. There's room for 7 at a squeeze, and it takes up less space than our previous round 4 person table.

It looks great! Good leg colour choice.

I bought a fancy wine cooler in anticipation of sitting outside drinking chilled rose with my friends. Why is the weather not playing ball??

That yellow is perfect with the blue.

What is wrong with them (men). My OH has just declared he only want clothes in black from now on. (Steve Jobs he is not) and can we do that for duvet covers and towels etc - I think separate bedrooms might b e in order here!

Your table looks great, smal! Can it stay outside during the winter?

Good for you, Annabella!

That’s made me think about Simon Cowell and his love for black toilet paper. I’m not sure why I’ve retained this information but it pops into my head quite often.

Its hardwood, and we'll buy a cover for it. It'll have to though, we don't have anywhere else for it. I am a bit afraid of damaging the top though, it's nicer than our actual dining table :mrgreen:

Black sheets and towels :lol:. And where does anyone get black loo roll?!
