Number 73 is mine!!!!!

(Of course, that's only if I win a lottery soon and I've only looked at the first 100 items. )

Ah - it's got a thistle on it! I can see you'd like that one.

I'm rather partial to some of the many pairs of Arts & Crafts exterior lights in the sale - really lovely they'd look outside the right house.

The parents of one of Lottie's schoolfriends have just bought an amazing arts & crafts house in Long Ditton (dead posh around there it is) and, although I'd prefer to live in a 1960s house given the choice I'd be more than happy living in an arts & crafts house like that and restoring it (replace 'more than happy' for bleeding delirious - it's huge, in a great area and cost around the £1m mark).

My idea of of the perfect house, an arts and crafts bungalow! All those built-ins!!!!!
