Whykay's happenings

Go figure...

On Saturday, Mick and I decided to go and look for flooring at Brooks Thomas at Bluebell, turns out that they were not open, and we are guessing, because of Easter.

So we decided to check out Homebase, just out of curiousity, and found them rather lacking (who would have thunk, ay?). Anyhoo, we trundled back into town, by LUAS of course. Went to O'Hagan Designs on Capel Street, and it was a bit bare. We were told by the shop assistant at the time that they just fitted out 30 apartments, and are due new furniture in 2 weeks. I was still impressed with the quality of furniture though. Then I saw this in the news this morning, they are folding, what timing, and just our luck. It's probably too late to pick up bargains, all the furniture we saw there were all sold to someone already.

Anyway, before I knew what was going to happen to O'Hagan's, we went down the quays towards Hanover quay. Bob Bushell's was another place we were recommended, and guess what? It's moved to Park West. Oh noes....

Although across the Liffey, we went to another furniture shop in The CHQ building called The environment furniture, so some nice stuff there as well.

All-in-all, a half-half sort of day for us in regards to furniture and flooring browsing.
