A bit of an expensive weekend...
« on: November 27, 2011, 17:53:48 »
I've had a bit of an expensive weekend. It started yesterday with me buying a set of Cooper Discoverer all terrain tyres for the Sorento and got significantly more expensive with the purchase of a pair of leather recliners (motorised, none of this manual malarky) sofas in Rosso red. Crikey, the bank account has taken a propper kicking this weekend ! Link to the sofa's below, exactly the same as mine just not in red, if anyones interested.

It's pronounced 'twenty-one-twelve'

That looks the business for the winter months in with the telly abit more! :thumb:

When I did my back in nearly 3 years ago now, I was virtually immobile on the bloody settee for so long I compressed an indent into one end of it - I can feel the poor old things wooden bones poking through now, no foam just where I like to sit (with the remotes just to hand, of course!) - I wonder if that's why the Stroms seat doesn't feel so bad to me?!

I told the wife we'd get it reupholstered, or whatever, but its knacked - I fear a trip to the sales in the new year is coming ... :bawl:

Thankfully not - I've got to get the room finished they're going in first. February will do just fine !
