    What are you like re the flowers :rotfl:

    Hope you find a nice chair. At one point Mr SA wanted me to get him a hospital chair :eek: He's like you and struggles to get out of chairs if they're too low.

    The chairs suggested look very good . I have always wanted a wing backed granny chair I find them very comfortable and warm to sit in . I hope the weekend brings some improvement in your aches and pains. Take care Beanie.
