RE: John Lewis, start saving

Nice one, cheers. I will check those out. I be Andy Malt.

Flipping Big Television

After much deliberation, arguing, stress, and a pizza express to diffuse the tension, we got ourselves a TV. Not exactly the one we went in for, we were talked up very slightly, after comparing them side by side. We did see others that we liked more ...

Will Self

presumably buying some sort of bed linen

Sinead Quim (Fame Academy)

In the Haberdashery Department buying some metal eyelets and a couple of yards of cord. She was with this other girl who I think was kicked out of Fame Academy early on; when some girls at the other till spotted her she was really nice and chatted to...

Stuff I want!

This bookcase and this sideboard, good starting prices on ebay, sure to go up to about 3/4 of their shop price though anyway, and how do I get them from Preston? Do I organise a courier? What's that cost? Collecting them myself would be too dangerous...

John Lewis Bergerac Oak TV Stand

This is what we should have got when we bought our sideboard, maybe. I am in a quandary still, I don't like the open shelves, but I do need access for DVD players and things.. This one is too high a starting price anyway, it's being sold by a busines...

Bidding's going crazy on the Bergerac Oak sideboard

9 bids so far, up to over 650 quid, looks like being not such a bargain for me when you take into account getting it couriered down from Preston. Still no bids on the bookcase but I expect that'll pick up today or tomorrow too. Interestingly (well, r...

I am outbid

I figured out how to get the furniture I am after couriered down from Preston with the help of a really cool website (that I have temporarily forgotten the name of) where you advertise what you want doing and all sorts of couriers and hauliers and ma...

You wait ages for a John Lewis Bergerac table

And then two come along at once. This one looks like a genuine sale, be lovely to think it stayed near it's opening price of fifty quid and didn't sail up to the thousand pound mark, but unlikely. As a bonus there you get to have a nose around that p...

Four tables, four prices

Hmm I suspect these four dining tables are actually the same table, but you can pay between 900 and 1250 pounds for them, depending on whether you want the table with just four chairs, four chairs and a bench, five chairs and a bench, or two chairs, ...

Weather report part two

Ferocious rain woke us both up in the night, a proper downpour again. Clare got the fear that the weather might have resulted in our pilot light going out (it happened before), which would mean waking up to cold showers, so I got up to check on it. W...

We nearly bought one of these

and perhaps should have done, half price Bergerac Oak TV stand. If you can collect from Glossop. Not worth organising a courier for really.Been a while since I posted any furniture bargains. Will be a while again before we buy anything I suspect. All...

Tsk

It's the John Lewis furniture that is rustic, the Habitat furniture is all web2.0 style clean lines and curvy corners...Clare got a "place", winnings were less than the cost of putting the various bets on, but we'll get our 25 quid back I hope. Have ...

If we could get this for �100 that would be FINE...

Bergerac Oak sideboard / display cabinet....

Nice weekend, quiet weekend

Nice weekend. Changed our Friday night outgoing plans and had a quiet one in. Saturday went to a 92nd birthday tea for Clare's gran over in Tenterden, home for a brief siesta, and then out to The Guildhall with visiting family and friends. Took a bri...

Apothecary cabinet strangeness in Surrey

You will of course remember this cabinet that I bigged up recently, it was listed for �100 and I put in a few bids for it, as I liked it and it's full price would be over two grand and it matches what we've got. It sold in the end for �545 to someone...

Apothecary cabinet went for �395

See it here, wonder if it will reappear on the listings again. Could have been a proper bargain, but that picture looked suss, like someone had revarnished it themselves.Speaking of REVARNISH, well kind of, I keep looking at words and thinking "that'...

Another odd looking Bergerac Oak table

Here's another Bergerac Oak dining table with the same odd colouring as the other pieces I've seen on ebay recently... is this maybe an older colour that John Lewis used to do? Our bookcases are the mid coloured "Alsace" range, it's not that, but we ...

I think I need this

John Lewis Bergerac trunk. Not a trunk for keeping all your Bergerac DVDs in, Bergerac is a range of furniture from John Lewis. This would match some pieces we have. Unfortunately bidding has gone crazy already, I was vainly hoping it would hang arou...

and then my ear exploded in a shower of blood

WEIRD dreams last night, partly that my ear burst in a shower of blood, and partly that I had gone somewhere on a train, and left my bag on the train, and couldn't get it back, and then we had to go on holiday and I was in BIG TROUBLE for not having ...

Our day out

Went to London. It rained. Had a nice day anyway. Here's where we went:[map]2009-03-28[/map]We did not see any rioting or anything, but we did fit in a Thai Square lunch with Emma, coffee, few pubs, and some sort of shopping. Feel a bit bad about the...

John Lewis Bergerac sideboard on ebay

WE've got the two door version of this sideboard, would have been great to find one on ebay!...

The Chapmans Hill event is going to be a disaster. Dont get involved in this one. Protests and road closures planned
Do yourself a favour give it a miss

John Lewis Bergerac side table

Collect from Cheshire... why are none of these bits of furniture in the South? Do people in the South not care? Or do they just hang on to them?Got our first viewers of the flat today, wish us luck!...

Went to Bluewater

Fairly quiet weekend apart from going to Bluewater.Friday, got back from FOWA fairly late. Got the high speed again, didn't seem quite as fast this time, but at least I timed it right. Thursday I just missed the fast train to Folkestone, had to wait ...

John Lewis Bergerac bookcase on ebay

These are gorgeous, we have two, I would love more but they're too expensive! This one will be a bargain for someone, not us though as collecting from Yorkshire is no good :-(...

A good day in Bluewater

Went to Bluewater for the day yesterday, didn't get any christmas shopping but did have a good day. Coffee, lunch at Nando's, more coffee, bit of browsing, and got our tea from the John Lewis foodhall, lovely. None of the problems getting out of the ...

John Lewis have discontinued the Bergerac range of furniture

John Lewis Bergerac has been replaced by John Lewis Ardennes it seems (according to the seller of these Bergerac oak chairs anyway. This has replaced our bookcases, and it's not the same detailing, so slim chance of us getting any more matching now. ...

John Lewis Bergerac oak tv unit

Collect from Cirencester, that's well cheap.Looks like we might have to flog some of our furniture in this way as it's looking unlikely we'll be able to fit flat sized furniture into any house we can afford....
