this post is not quite as dull as it sounds as we need a new table and chair for when rob, our work experience student from the HND graphics course at yorkshire coast college starts next week. which is quite exciting - he’ll be with us up until easter. so although it’s a necessary evil visiting this temple of swedish pine and plastic (if we want a table that matches our others), who can resist goodies such as this square frog thing?

ok, i can. 
what are the people at ikea thinking? it looks like he’s unexpectedly eaten a large packing crate. do the swedes subject their offpsring to these slightly disturbing items of childrens furniture or are they for the uk market only?

anyway, i shall return with table and chair only. and maybe some new bookshelves as the very cool but rather useless bracketless ones we have aren’t proving a good marriage with our crumbling victorian plastered walls.

and maybe a square frog thing. after all, it does fit in with the studio colourscheme.
