Friend finds perfect item at Brocante.

a wooden bedside table with slim shapely legs and two small draws with little round knobs. It is quite simple but looks beautiful and well made. Behind it are more items in the brocante.

How are your friends kind to you, and to others?

I heard about a friend of a friend who loves visiting brocantes (flea markets) in France where they both live.

One day she asked if there was anything my friend wanted her to look for at the brocante she was going to. She was looking for a pair of bedside tables and explained the sort of thing she wanted.

An hour later she sent a photo and said this is what I’ve found, what do you think?

They were exactly right! So she bought them on my friend’s behalf and carried them home so she could pick them up from her house.
