Well, that was easier than I expected!
Mar. 15th, 2019 10:23 amThe upholsterers have arrived and collected the sofa. This is not Nicola, who upholstered our armchairs, but the people we were already talking to when I met Nicola at the Christmas Fair. They told us they couldn't start until March, whereas Nicola was able to do the armchairs over Christmas - but her price for the sofa was higher than theirs, and there was the complication that it would not fit in her car (the armchairs did, just, one at a time). So we went back to Plan A. I was not looking forward to getting the sofa out of the house, but it went surprisingly easily, once we had moved a few boxes...
The morning's next task is to change out of furniture-moving clothes, and into something appropriate for the funeral of an old but not particularly close friend. What to wear? Something smart and dark enough to be appropriate, robust enough to walk to the far side of town on a blustery March day... I fear the red coat is unavoidable.
