Lazing around and relaxing means 2 things to me - being comfortable and sprawling out. Neither the chair and particularly the hammock accommodate these. Comfy lounger for me I'm afraid with cushions!

nah - me too fizzfan54. If I want to swing, I'll sit in a swing thanks. Otherwise a sunlounger or outdoor sofa. What's wrong with sprawling on the grass in summer anyway?

We are potty about deckchairs! There is much more variety out than you might think - some are great for lounging, others are more upright and supportive, and therefore ideal for dining etc... There is a deckchair out there for everyone!

The Eames dsw chair is such a timeless design and works well in so many different environments. Replicas are also very affordable.

How could you not see the red star first? It's positioned in the middle of the picture, it's a striking colour and everything else is a bland mess. It's obviously a very nice kitchen but the first thing I would do if I moved in here is remove some of the clutter especially the red star so the lovely cabinets could take centre stage

TRADESMEN. It's a miracle when one bothers to quote at all ... as such, I now build walls, can plaster, and drive a digger lol... I tile, fit carpets, fitted the kitchen, all with only half of one of my lower spinal discs left. By the time you get a quote back, its more often a month or more down the line and have already hired a couple of lads on a daily rate doing things how you dictate after weeks of research. I hired a roofer to replace my cast iron guttering with aluminium ones, he put up new soffits and fascias BADLY, ran off to assume weigh in my old gutters and ran off with the money for my new ones - steep learning curve there, and a CCJ is no use getting my money back. I purchased a kitchen, it turned up in bad shape, then commenced over 8 months to get to court for my money back... Hired a tree co to remove a load of trees overhanging the house and clear the boundary... an old man cried about a tree that wasnt his anyway so the tree folk abandoned the job. Thankfully I have a great electrician and a reliable plumbing company, but only call them for either gas or. heavier electrical work.... the husband does to electrics and plumbing but he hates it and we do get it checked. I keep trying to find a good builder though. Everything takes so long and its physically and mentally draining on me.... I would MUCH rather have someone I can trust but no luck yet.

If I am lazing I want to put my feet up..so a high backed chair and footstool for me..
Nothing more uncomfortable than lying in a hammock trying to read a book having to hold your arm at an odd angle and position the book so the sun isn't in your eyes!!

My parents got a hanging chair in hammock fabric that's got an extended bit to lay your legs on, it's the most comfortable thing ever!

Tough one really, went for hammock in the end, but I'm thankful that o found some cocoon style hanging hammock (I think it might be from fat boy) that effectively is like a marriage between the two!
