An Auction buy
« on: September 27, 2012, 06:20:15 am »
This is a Wardrobe that we got a few months aho at a general furniture auction..its a Victorian pine wardrobe..and when Avril saw it....it was love at first sight...2nd time round...I was first ;D.. its 6ft long x 6ft high x 20in deep..with a 3drawer chest behind the left hand door....its made of Oregon Pine...and it is our intention..to strip it back to the wood...then wax it...it cost £60...and we think it was a bargain...there is a little damage to one side....there was,nt when we bought it...but  a ham fisted individual....made a pigs arse of getting it through the front door......yup...you rs truly...Me....my name was Mud for a few hours afterwards...but once i had assured Avril that i could repair it,she calmed down....once its been stripped i,ll  post ...after pics....

I used to have a 6 pack, then it became a 12 pack and then a case of 30. Now I am down to one tall boy and have become a thin boy again.
