      Deckchairs. That's what they are.

      Over here in England it is that law that if you either a) live within 10 miles of the sea or b) have more than 6ft square of "lawn" you have to have at least one of these.

      I have 2...

      As for getting out of them, it's an acquired skill, sort of a roll/push. πŸ˜„

          There isn't room on the deck of my boat for one of these, let alone a pair. I guess I have more deck than beach, though. πŸ˜„

          Bob, thanks for the link. I think I'll have to modify my chairs a little.

            I have half a dozen I could sell you for a good price, one careful owner, the rest of them were very careless. Haven't been used in quite a while as it was clear that the next time anyone sat on them the rotten canvas would split or the wood would shatter, either one causing medium to serious spinal injuries.

              You need to offer them at an auction. Someone will pay a lot of money for them if they are bidding against another fool. πŸ˜„

              I modified the chair to make it easier to install and replace the fabric.

                Dave, how do you think I ended up with them in the first place.

                      If you really want it, send me a some beer instead of your first born. Those first born children can eat a guy out of house and home.

                      Actually a few years ago I was at an auction where the auctioneer got $9 for a short hank of used clothesline rope. You could have bought 50' of new stuff for about $4.95. Of course the new stuff wouldn't have the patina and bird dropping residue of the used rope. The same auctioneer got around $35 for three partial jugs of old lawn chemicals. Seems like the kind of auctioneer you want at your own auction.

                        Sounds like everyone had sampled the lawn chemicals which would explain why the jugs were partial. Mind you I've been known to be partial to a jug or two, nothing like a nice pair of jugs on a deck chair.
