Jeremy Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 I actually don't own very much Ikea furniture... a kitchen table and chairs which have metal frames and are pretty sturdy. Not much else, as most of their stuff seems to be made from cardboard. Bob, I don't know if you're aware of this, but there are other shops you can buy furniture from. The choice is not limited to vintage/antique or Ikea!

giggirl Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Austins? Wasn't that the big place on the corner in Brixton near the academy? I bought a wardrobe in there once. Turned out it had woodworm and I had to have the bedroom sprayed. Not very romantic.

Peckhamgatecrasher Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 No, it was a huge warehouse on about 5 floors in Peckham Rye, where Austins Court is now.

SimonM Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I think Austin's even got a plug in one of John Le Carre's novels - or maybe it was Graham Greene or Len Deighton: literary Peckham eh?!
