FALLEN TREES AND ANTIQUE OBSESSION

fallen tree in my garden

two of the 6 OLD chairs that I acquired

My neighbour's humongous tree fell on my backyard last night. The damage on the boundary wall doesnt show as the fallen tree still sits on it. The electric fence is torn together with some other wiring (no idea what's what). We expected a knock on our door from them (seeing that the whole tree is in our garden) but in vain until we went to them at around 1pm today. We were not treated well at all by neighbour. We were not fighting with her.

Just before that, we went to collect very old chairs from the seller. It was a set of 10 with different detail on them. I didnt like the 4 that was modernised with new upholstery and more straight legs like Queen Anne style. I liked the 4 that had a lot of detail in the legs and torn original fabric plus the dwarf kind which is same size but short. This two short ones are referred to as baby feeders by the seller. They are on casters. I will have them refurbished the coming week.

Today I added 6 chairs to my antique collection and tried to address the fallen tree situation with my neighbour.
