Am I a sad git to think that this looks rather fabulous?

[PrincessPeaHead]

I envisage myself lying in it with a book while also "supervising" sandpit activities

but it is rather grannyish

whaddya think?

Or the wood pigeons would poo on them, like they poo on everyting else in my garden!

I know what you mean PPH - I know I'd forget to cover it and it would get wet, also we are surrounded by cows and therefore flies and therefore anything let in the garden gets covered in fly spots after a day.

(Oh yeah and I don't have £2,799 to spend on a garedn swing)

pph if you get it then you should blow the rest of your holiday budget on throwing a party to show it off while it's still pristine

yes that one is lovely
no idea where you'd hire them from though
why not order 10 for the day before and when they arrive say "no, no, I only ordered one! please come and get them on monday"

ha ha

ps my party invite appears to have been lost in the post. please resend

yes it would be bound to get flyspotty and pooed on

but it would still be loverly

still hmmmming

A good friend of mine is married to an Adrian btw. He's very nice.

the caterers are on the case atm trying to find somewhere that hires such a thing out

the wood looks nice and sturdy

would worry about the white material getting wrecked though

i'm sure pph has a Lady What Does who can fashion spare covers from eau de nil type fabrics

and a gardener with a pressure washer

I think this is more fitting for a princess

now that is very sweet!

completely wasted on my feral children though

I was thinking you would hide behind the curtains yourself

Oh Tutter you do sound like one of the Henley Laydeees LOL

(are you a namechanger?)

Now this is topical. I've been thinking about garden furniture recently. Old woman alert - I've hinted to DH that a recliner from John Lewis would make a lovely present for a 42 year old with a summer birthday. (And I bought him a luxury compost bin for his birthday. We are officically now old gimmers)

PPH - I saw a fantastic thing at the weekend which was a woven willow structure - like a giant cat's basket, enclosed, with a lovely round seat in it - fantastic!

i have been drooling over this catalogue all week - delighted to see the prices are on the website (not). They have shocked me out of my daydreams!
I have long hankered after one of these (and obviously the provencal villa to attach it to)

No Cod, this one

Bugger: this one
