Sadly, the brown velour lounge had to go - it was so old you could feel the wood sticking into your back when you sat in it - not so good for lounging!
So we saw some lounges displayed along the roadside just outside the mine village - the man makes the lounges in his little workshop just behind that. So we got him to make us up a new lounge - this one is an eight-seater L-shaped one - in leather, and cost us 550 cedis (about $400)! It might not be the most modern style (I think I'd describe it as the mid-1990's look), and the leather is a mustard yellow colour, but that's all they seem to make here at the moment! And it is very comfortable - this afternoon both Warren and I stretched out on it and had a little afternoon nap!
