I reach this city when Empire Windrush dock. When it come to seat, armchairs for sale mi know what last. We only could afford old sofa, but it scratch, retro style sofa bed it creak, but it solid. But mi tell you, retro piece worth more than gold. Step in Portobello, you see retro sofa pile high. Not glossy, but dem true. When reggae first play in Brixton pub, Sofa stay whole family life. Every scratch talk story. Mi and brethren Lennox find one old Chesterfield in Dalston, but Everybody sit pon it.

Mi can smell the leather now. Postcode tell story too. Chelsea go fancy, wid deep wingback. Camden clash colour, wid funky old frame. All dem catalogue chair? Dem got no memory. Vintage chair hold family together. Mi speak plain, mi take scarred sofa over glossy fake. If you tink to buy quick, stop an look round, and make it tell your story same as mine.
