I understand.My favourite chair was rescued from a friends house after they had an overhaul of its contents. It had belonged to the grandmother of one of them, is probably older than I am, and is, in my reckoning, the best chair ever to have been... it even has a foot rest that springs up from beneath when you push the back back.
Everyone else hates it. I loves it.
and I seriously have acquired furniture from worse places than the outside of a pub in Hounslow... a street in Woolwich being one!
