We're waiting in today to receive our new Farmhouse buffet chairs for the French oak table. These are going to look great and will allow us to seat 10 around the table. I can also use one to sit and listen to music.

Walked from our house in Nocton to the cricket club and then on to Dunston returning via the main road. Quite a walk in one and a half hours.
