Their adverts are a bit annoying, but otherwise I have no problem with them ( and I didn't buy my sofa from them either)

I drive a Jaguar, was privately educated and have a Desmond from one of the ancients. I also know no shame and will talk to anyone who is friendly to me. That is a true sign of class, as opposed to new money.

quite right. are dfs run by dyslexic criminals? i don't understand the "stoop so low" comment. Hmm

joel was just being joel, i think. i can't remember where our sofa came from, but it could easily have been dfs or similar.

i was also privately educated, but that was due to the size of my brain and a scholarship!

i think it's shrunk since then though....

mac mini + dacmagic, moon i3-rs, atc scm 19, atlas questor, atlas hyper 3.0, atacama avi, atacama hms2

i also have a chord company superscreen powercable.
but mainly cos it looks nice.
it doesn't make me a bad person.

No fur here. Was simply commenting that I was surprised at their targeting. And I was feeling very grumpy at the time if I remember.

Apologies.
