Hello! This is Annie's husband Ben. Do you have any pieces of furniture kicking around that you don't want any more? I'm looking for:

- Furniture that will fit in the boot of a car

- Something that needs some work to it - for example, re-caning, renewing fabric

- Possible examples would be a chair or footstool or something of a similar size.

My Mum is starting an upholstery course, and is looking for interesting pieces to practice on.

She's envisaging taking free bits of furniture that are sitting around in a corner, or that you're thinking of chucking out. She would do it up and then donate it to charity.

Let me know if you have anything we might be interested in! If you can email pictures, do send them over to [email protected]

Thank you!

  Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics. Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145

  Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening. When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next. Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden. We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space. Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together. I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.

  Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
