I reach this city when Empire Windrush dock. The real ting never lose value. First flat mi rent in Brixton, but dat chair feel alive. But mi tell you, retro piece worth more than gold. Any London market you choose, armchair wid leather crack. Not new outta box, but dem true. When London swing 1960s, Sofa stay whole family life. Every stain show moment. We drag it on trolley all di way Brixton, but It creak but it strong. Dat sofa still in mi memory.

London borough different style. Chelsea go fancy, wid plush sofa. Camden clash colour, wid funky old frame. Modern flat-pack? Dem got no memory. Retro sofa carry life. Call it what you like, mi pick funky chairs for living room armchair over soulless sofa. When you pass market, dig through retro, and watch it age same way as you.
