I know its an odd thing to post about , but i have noticed that everyone i know that is of retirement age (60 ish) owns teak furniture.
I recently had a inner giggle at the PIL`s , who announced with great vigour that they were replacing the furniture and redecorating , a bit more modern !.
They had teak side tables(nest) coffee table, dining table, wall unit thats about 6 feet across, hi fi unit and display cabenets.
DH and I were invited to view the "new furniture".
WOW ! they had replaced the stuff with near identical items. ..... but also added a teak lamp table and magazine rack! .
the room looks no different, bless them.
might treat them to some new lace doileys .
