This piece will have been commissioned by the family of the bride as a wedding present to the grooms family. It will then have been presented at a lavish Indian wedding filled with silks, saris, gold jewellery, coins and even copper pans.

2. A beautiful example of solid teak G Plan design. Fold down cocktail bar, double cabinet, 2 generous drawers with cutlery dividers and lower storage cabinet. Great condition, no chips in the solid teak carved handles or sleek curved legs. Raised to stand flush to the wall above skirting boards.

L153 x D43 x H136cm

3. Beautiful two-tier 1970s side table/coffee table. It's an iconic design, and the origin of flat pack furniture. All legs and top tier can detach so they can even be posted!

  It wasn't a rumour, the salon had closed when I posted here. Regarding the Post Office, as I said go and ask them.

  My annoyance Is with the fact that the gym is being closed for 5 weeks for refurbishment but we dont have an option to freeze our membership if the only facility we use is the gym. Apparently Peckham gym is closed at the same time for refurbishment which I think is pretty stupid. Therefore the nearest gym for all the members from ED leisure centre and Peckham leisurecentre is the one in Camberwell . I lament the everyone active days..at least I could attend gyms near to work and outside Southwark

  Those who live in the modern world can scan cheques on those little computers they keep in their pocket that also act as a phone. If you can find a bank many will have devices to take money out and also scan cheques. That said I haven't cashed one for years or written one even longer. As far as I know the only use of cheques now is buying the Countryfile Calendar.
