What's your favourite piece of furniture, and why?

    Okay,

    I'm drunk a little bit earlier than usual, but I've noticed that AH is in danger of getting serious. I think we all know, that, too many political threads could lead us down the wrong road.

    So, I'm going to go for a sideboard. It looks well, you can store stuff in it, and at a pinch, it can double up as an extra table.

    So, AHers have you a favourite piece of furniture? It doesn't have to necessarily apply to any piece of furniture.

    Maybe, it's a beanbag, where you first watched Withnail & I.

    Btw, I have a habit of getting threads locked when I'm this locked, so, could I just say in advance, that an orange is my favourite fruit.

    Honourable mentions to the plum and the humble gooseberry.

    I have a cloak-stand, which, I feel, doesn't get half the credit it's due.

    Unlike that Chaise-Longue....the treachorous little tart.:mad:

    Ottoman.

    I love how it used to be an Empire, not it's something you put your feet on.

    ****ty legacy but comfy as ****.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,736 ✭✭✭Gannicus


    They're only comfortable to put your feet up on. Hate sitting on them


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,540 ✭✭✭Giselle


    Big squishy sofa.

    A little comfy oasis, big enough to stretch out on and snooze, firm enough not to give you aches, soft enough to sink in.

    I love my sofa. I could marry it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,143 ✭✭✭Tzetze


    Occasional table, but not all the time.

    I felt the same until the dog took a poo on it (really).:(

    My favourite piece of furniture now, is a bedside lamp that I bought. It was and still is the only piece of furniture I have bought, if a lamp can be considered furniture.

    Those small square Ikea coffee tables because they're cheap and easy to haul around when moving.

    Perfect for a cosy cup of tea of a Thursday, or organising one's drugs after getting back from the sin club at five o'clock of a Saturday morning.

    Is paedophilia really wrong?

    Well, technically, yes.

    But it's pretty much the Usain Bolt of the furniture world. If we allow it, then, it's just a race for second place.

    Me ma, R.I.P. (passed away a couple of months ago:(), developed a bit of a lamp fetish in her later years. We used to slag her about having to go to LA (Lamps Anonymous).

    My sister used to go to the Blackrock market with her on Sundays. She'd have to stop her buying another lamp. I think, towards the end, she was purposely breaking lights in the house.

    Addiction is a terrible thing.

    And my brother found a few issues of "Lamps Weekly" stashed discretely under her mattress.:o
