The urge overtook me suddenly. I woke from a dream straight into a level ten urge for home improvement. I measured things then set out for the hardware shop but I didn't get far. Outside The Peach was a sofa, its old, faded and overstuffed and precisely the kind of thing I have been dreaming of. I knocked on The Cowboy's door and asked if he had a moment to help me carry it inside. I was worse than useless at handling the logistics of the operation so in the end Grizelda and The Cowboy were the ones cursing, puffing and sweating their way down the hall and into the library.
The Cowboy said he was playing at The Annandale tonight and ordinarily I would have gone but I'm resting my bruised and stupid self this evening on my new sofa in the library. I think its best if I stay in for the foreseeable future. I've decided I can't be trusted outside, in the real world, except for hardware shops, they seem to be ok.
Yeah that photo is a bit shit but do I look like I care?

Meanwhile, I applaud the enhousing of abandoned furniture. More power to your inner womble.
I wish the colour of the sofa was detectable in the photograph. Colours may appear more attractive when not viewed via shitty mobile phone camera.
I would also like some money. I would like to walk outside The Peach and find a big heavy bag stuffed full of money. Firstly I would buy cat food and vegetables, then a house and some marbles, a kite, some slippers and a haircut, one burrito form Guzman and Gomez and two coffees at the cafe. I might like some cake or sorbet but I could be too full.
