    You would seriously have to have a lot more money than sense to pay over a thousand pounds for that one scabby chair!!! It's not even anything special it's just wooden with a cushion on. I think it's an Emporer's New Clothes job, some arty farty type says how wonderful it is and all the brown-nosing sycophants fawn and crow over it in agreement. Ordinary people however can see it's just one small wooden chair!

    Thanks for the comp. I will enter for what it is.

    Good for Tiddles! Obviously a discerning sort of animal. Expensive cat bed though even if ideal for that purpose.
