  1. Your new garden seating solution reminds me of H G Well's Time Machine - omly an outdoor version.

    Oh, and I'd very much like a 'live' version of your Art Deco lamp, please. Does anyone have three spare houseboys who are up to the task?

    1. When Harry Winston bought the Pink Legacy in 2017, they paid almost £40 million (over $54 million) - unfortunately it's a little out of our league... Jx
