Another quickie post!  My new chair has arrived and I am totally in love with it!  My hubby has a Secret Labs chair and I've always been a teeny bit jealous, so I'm so happy to now have one of my very own.  It's comfy and sturdy and matches the other chairs in the room so perfectly you'd think they had been bought all from the same place.  (You'll see the other chairs soon, don't worry!)

My husband and I spent a lovely time with my parents on Sunday (having called his own Mum earlier) then went out for dinner at night.

You'll be able to download a copy online from my website (under the "Catalogues" section) but there's nothing quite like flicking through the paper copy with a cup of tea and a notepad to jot down those must-haves on [...]
