Been in London from di forties, seen it all. Mi see chair come, chair go. Back then, living room chairs and sofas South London rough, cold, but it scratch, it creak, but it solid. Nowadays dem want flat-pack quick. Wander Spitalfields, armchair wid leather crack. Not pretty-pretty, best retro armchairs but dem carry London inside. Long time before internet, Sofa stay whole family life. Every spring hold laugh and cry. Mi remember one winter 1971, but Beer spill, children jump, reggae shake wall.

Mi can smell the leather now. Every area carry different vibe. Belgravia love polish, wid deep wingback. Brixton mash up mix, statement armchairs wid upcycled seat. All dem catalogue chair? Dat nuh worth nutten. Old funky accent seat last long. Call it what you like, mi take scarred sofa over glossy fake. When you pass market, pick up sofa wid story, and make it tell your story same as mine.
