sods law

struck again. Yesteray I had mentioned how good my Viking steel kneelie chair was, two years service from it and still going well compared to the previous shitty wooden chairs which broke within 4 months of purchase.

Of course it broke on me today ; fortunatly as I was standing up - cast metal thingy at top of the gaslift sheared in half from a round bar it connected to. New one on order with Viking (60 quid or so, so still a bargain at 30quid/year for very comfortable chair)

May now have to go spend several hundred quid on an arc welder to fix up the old chair though :)
