So near and yet sofa

The 'city' in East Central London is always virtually dead on a weekend and I found myself in it as I mootled around checking out furniture stores called things like Dwell, Co-habit and Tenancy Agreement.

I soaked up a few ideas (prior to acquiring cheaper versions online) and decided I don't naturally go for the glitzy. A couple of bold purple cushions is likely as flamboyant as I'm gonna get. 5 out of 10 for furniture browsing.

Half the day was spent marooned at Stevenage because of train track woes and then Victoria line woes prevented me from getting to everywhere I wanted once I'd finally arrived in London. 1 out of 10 for transport provision.
