@dlowan,
Weird true story.
I have a little bedside table/chest of drawers that I have had for so long.....despite it having been a cheap, gimcrack thing to begin with.....that I last recall painting it in the eighties!
Anyway, yesterday I opened the top drawer and was unable to close it again. It was stuck almost fully open. I tried everything! I could not find a single reason for it to refuse to close....but refuse to close it did.
Eventually I decided it had been so cheap that I would simply replace it.
I had a friend with me who stayed for a few days, and we popped into the second hand shop in Willunga, a local hamlet. There was a lovely scrubbed wood bedside table/chest of drawers with way more room and beautifully crafted going for a song.
Also, my friend having complained of a lack of bedside lights in the guest bedroom, I found a pair of truly lovely brass bedside lamps....also going for a song....they only need new lampshades because the current ones are ridiculously big.
I arranged for delivery and we went about our happy weekend business.
When we finally got home, I went into my bedroom. There was evidence of woolly mischief, in that a bedside basket was lying overturned with its contents scattered around.
Also, looking perfectly innocent, was my original bedside chest of drawers with the offending stuck drawer closed as though it had never been stuck!
What in hell the cats did to close it I cannot imagine.
Now I have a lovely new and much nicer and more capacious bedside thingy plus the old one, which remains very useful.
GOOOOOOOOOD woollies!
