And miles and miles of carpet tiles
TV’s, deep freeze and David Bowie LP’s
Pool games, gold chains, wosnames

Decorator’s Notebook and I have just returned from a great weekend of bargain hunting in Lille’s city-wide car boot sale, La Braderie. So it was more John Travolta LPs, but you get the idea.
