Off to Southgate Auctions again to see if they had a piano stool in; the catalogue said that they had one but I just couldn't see it.

But we did see these: a three piece suite no less. Blue iridescent vinyl, a flowery corduroy cushion and a hexagonal pattern around the base. Undoubtedly some designer masterpiece...

The one downside of the Southgate Auctions is the parking: if you park on street you'll get a ticket. If you park in their car park (which I did this time) you'll get blocked in. So, come time to leave I wandered back in and asked the guy on the desk (very nice he was too, always helpful) if he knew who has a burgundy Audi.

"Oh yes... look over there... the older woman with the fur coat on? She's always here. Deaf as a post so it's no use shouting"

10 minutes later and we were out.
