I think it's quite possible that the ever fragrant Alice has been stumbling upon/finding more free pavement "stuff" than even Eric, this last little while ......

...... and this morning was no exception .......
....... when she spotted these two rather splendid bar stools at the very entrance of our estate going gratis.
Now, not that Alice knows a lot about bar stools (kitchen or otherwise, being a gentile young lady), but she did know that if the hydraulics didn't work, i.e go up and down smoothly, they wouldn't be much use, if, for example, they were on the dodgy side, unseemly accidents could occur if they, hypothetically, suddenly dropped without any forewarning, just as someone was about to take a bite of their toast etc. at the table/bar ......
Sooooooo, it would have been rude and in a way, un-neighbourly not to try them out of a health and safety type nature.
Alice was impressed, they did indeed pass muster re: said hydraulics and glamour as they matched her lipstick perfectly, however no one at chez Towers was texted as to their free availability because we simply don't have the space and then ..... goodness only knows what ideas Eric would come up with in order to try and emulate any number of fairground rides when sat on one! We know him soooooo well!

They do look to be in the best possible taste.
Oh my goodness-I can just imagine Eric twirling around, drink in hand and saying he feels dizzy!! Perhaps it’s for the best that you didn’t bring them into your kitchen.

Ooh they do take me back! We had those very stools in our old kitchen, before we downsized to the seaside. And yes, the fun of going up and down and twirling around never ceased to be a source of fun for our kids and us too!!
