    Has a new name....
    Chester drawers!
    Have seen it twice now in London.
    Once in a furniture shop.
    Once in an ad for a room to let.
    Invest now! The Chester drawers are the new must have!!
    I can see an antiques show in 100 years time telling some would be millionaire that his Chester drawers is not authentic English fare but mass produced Ikea fare.

    At some stage I suppose we're going to have a go over there and help them out, a few pointers on how to speak their own language. That sort of thing.

    I picked up the last set of those chester drawers, an absolute bargain, had a grin on me like a Cheshire Cat all the way home.

    I used to think I had an automan and a poofy in my bedroom. Now I know it's an ottoman and a pouffe. Oh how silly was I?
