It's official

@eawates sad times indeed :(

I have fond memories of @eawates moving hell and high water to get a delightful Ercol sofa up some very narrow stairs.

Best wishes to everybody.

I got the last #Furzedown cushion on the very last day of @eawates which closes tonight after 120 years of fabulousness!
Everything must go - down to the last lightbulb. Good luck to Roger Wates & all his crew for the future
