The old one got donated to a new home where it fits much better, as it was and has been way to big for our small lounge ever since we bought it in a fit of emotional pique one January Sale about  6 years ( without measuring it).

I have been moaning about its size for  all that time and although I am happy to have the space we have no-where to lie down  and  dissolve into a heap of nothingness in front of the idiot box and the space now allotted for new sofa is only 144cm in width. We tried every shop in the West End and I spent more on sticking plasters than sofas.

Oh and the Christmas trees are already up in the toy department of Selfridges……arrrrrghghghgh.

We are now no where nearer our quest…and now I am off to have a grapefruit  juice in the pub. Set them up Johnny!

SONG OF THE DAY -Siyahamba

By this lovely African Children’s Choir -I sing this song a lot with kids..and I was reminded with all the walking I have done in the last 2 days ( I walked home form St Pancras too yesterday) ‘we are walking in the light of God’
