    I should point out now, if it’s not obvious judging by the quantity of ‘collections’ I have, no I don’t have children

    Levi’s now are at a real high. Anything Valencia Street, anything selvedge, anything black bar tack has gone through the roof. I do love a good Levi. I have a cupboard full of 60s, 70s and 80s and some oddities like these advertising ones, 76” waist, 55” leg:

    Anyone into classic furniture

    I’ve always love Moore, as long as I can remember. I have dozens of books on his works, I have his complete catalogue of sculpture and drawings. I particularly love his war time work and his London Underground pictures. I own a few of his prints, a sketch and a few bits of ephemera but the idea...

    Trying to remember, did that one have the built in drinks tray inside it?

    That was a good sideboard, but it was massive!

    That just screams Murano, amazing that it wasn’t made there. Love that they had the cheek to call their glassworks Murano!

    And just to be a bit tacky, I do like 60s/70s Beswick flying ducks too

    Another piece of Richard Hornby with some Whitefriars glass. The picture above is the original ‘Where’s Wally’ by Martin Handford. This is the one that lead to him getting a publishing deal, it’s all pen and felt tip and is amazing! Found on eBay late one night. The second photo is my real...

    Here’s a piece of Richard Hornby Aformosia furniture. I have far too many in the house. Phone is a Belgian telecom phone I rewired to work on digital networks, sculpture is a Henry Moore, catalogued and authenticated by the Henry Moore foundation, found in a flea market!

    Cats bed is a Verner Panton Peacock Chair. Never meant it to happen but how can I say no now…

    I do like a good lamp, this one is about the only one tall enough for our sitting room. It was a 60s Hungarian army ‘portable’ operating theatre lamp. I reworked it, converted to led and painted it Yeti desert turquoise. Chair is a Stokke peel chair in London transport moquette, table is a 1990s...

    Anyone into classic furniture

    This is my view from where I am sat currently. I love glass, I do make stained glass for fun but not these two pieces. One was from the entrance of a glassworks, the other from a 60s house that got demoed for flats. I built the light boxes and had to do some repairs on the one on the left as it...

    Museum, junk shop, hoarders paradise…it’s all the same, right? I have a lot of Fyne Lady Aformosia furniture designed by Richard Hornby, Eames this and that, Panton peacock chair that the cats sleep in and so much mid century glass (many Whitefriars, I have a stupidly large collection) and...

    Mavic Wishbones. (Hens Teeth Not Included)

    The great thing is they have many, many clicks. I used a Mavic wishbone on an 8 speed Shimano cassette with a 10t TNT lock ring and a Ritchey 9 speed cog. 10 speeds with 8 speed spacing back in the mid 90s all thanks to Mavic shifters. They were made by Simplex. I have found a couple of NOS...

    Show us your disc modded retro

    I have an Ibis Bow Ti. Mad bike, totally unique but flawed. The biggest flaw was the seat stays were so long that they offered no resistance against flex when the rear cantilevers were used. The rear brakes were basically useless on these bikes. Disc brakes were a godsend. I had Steve Potts add...
