Yuck. I think you and that sleazebag with the high sex drive are one and the same

Peckhamgatecrasher is right. If it is old, worn out, and you spent many weekends hunting high and low in vintage shops, flea markets, etc then it's awesome. It doesn't matter if it's too big or it sags in the middle, just imagine telling all your great chums how you stumbled across it and just had to have it!


However, if you order one from a regular shop then it's tasteless mass produced junk.

Ha Ha


I think what Jeremy is getting at is: Why spend a few hours looking for a tasteful leather sofa which will last you twenty years when you can spend the whole day going to Ikea to buy a horrible one for the same price - that lasts two years, and was shite in the first place.


Right, Jeremy?

Oi, when we first moved into the house we bought we literally filled it to the brim with Billy bookcases.

They're brillyant (geddit).


We slept in them, bathed among them, even put ornaments and books on some of them. And the best bit is that you can make a nice fire out of them after two weeks when they all fall apart.


Geni?s!!

I love Ikea, Jeremy - for some things. But ultimately it's a false economy, in terms of time and money. If (for the sake of argument) you get all your furniture there, I'll warrant that you'll spend more time going there, and more money re-buying furniture than I will during my lifetime.


So (putting the element of 'taste' aside, which is personal of course) your usual arguments of 'not being able to afford it' or 'not having the time' simply don't cut the mustard.


RE leather sofas, I believe the height of manfacturing excellence to the 1970s-1980s, where (Keef) I believe your wishes for soft, cosy leather could be accommodated - in style.

New sprayed leather as opposed to Tanned hide is not that nice ( a little sweaty unless you wish to invest serious money )

We have a couple of danish 60/70's vintage Stouby leather sofa's & they are quite beautifully distressed, in the winter we have dark brown sheepskin rugs on them .Add a log fire & you really can't complain about cold/ hot scenario




Grr

Have you considered hiring-out for porn shoots? There's good money in it. Or if not, you can at least stay and watch.

I now see where you're coming from but I'm afraid that your reply to PGC's deco taste contained about as much sarcasm and 'Klippancy' as a Swedish furniture designers sense of humour. If in future you want a post/message to convey a sense of either sarcasm or flippancy then I suggest think a little bit harder regarding the posts content and how it matches/mocks the post you're attempting to get a rise out of as to give us an ikea as to what you're going on about.

Schoolboy error Brendan - blood and sulphuric acid is no good at all for leather

I think we should put a stop to this. This lovely young lady asks a perfectly reasonable question and immediately gets inappropriately propositioned by Mr Wolf. The conversation then swiftly degenerates into people taking baths in amongst objects with frankly mucky sounding Scandinavian names and wild unsubstantiated claims about the physical properties of mustard. Then quids decides to do a Freddy Kruger on my old sofa.


Enough already.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
