Having explained to the galaxy yesterday about refurbishing chairs for a ridiculously low price, today we moved onto stools!! Nothing biological or medical I hasten to add. The frame of the stool was great but the cover was - - - - - (on a scale of 1 to 10 - - - minus12). However, the underside of the stool (I wish I could stop saying that) was supported by interwoven hessian (try saying that after 12 pints of Old Speckled Hen) so it was recycled to support a hardboard base (did you know that Black and Decker power saws could cut circles and round corners? I didn't!) with foam padding and part of the cheapo material we got from Dunelm yesterday. Supported with a bit of velcro, if an earthquake of +7 on the Richter Scale occurs, hide under the stool and you should be safe.
It's a bit like expiriential learning (I don't know what it means and can't spell it, but it sounds impressive to me) except next time it might not work as well unless we can find a similar stool (I said it again!) with similar joints.
