There once was a girl called Amanda who hand manky
Garden furniture around her
She could only dream of the furniture she had seen
In the brochures and books around her
She wished for sleek steamers in natural or green
For the most beautiful chairs she had ever seen
For a lovely glass table to eat a meal
Just one of these thing would fit the bill.
Amanda, or Cinderella as she often felt
Looked around her garden with despair
With it’s old peeling chairs and no other wares
She could simply just pull out her hair.
She hoped that one day she would wake up and see
The steamer from The Garden Furniture Centre
She had won
But until that day comes or the lottery’s won
She will just have to try and compete!
I would put it in my garden room so I can read in comfort before I go to bed
in the sun eating a bun!!

Alfresco snoozing takes some beating, I’d do it in style with Sherwood seating.
This would match some garden chairs I have but they dont have the bit to put your legs up on.
sleeping like a baby on this

When I moved into my gorgeous flat with a roof terrace I couldn’t wait to lounge out in the sun, all that’s missing is the perfect chair to do it in!! This would be perfect!!
I would give this to my elderly mother to use in the sumer house we have built for her in her garden. Now that she is too elderly to go abroad, she loves sitting in the summerhouse in her garden, and this would make her extra comfortable!
Where would I put it? – On a 1930s style tramp steamer of course….though steamboats are getting a bit harder to come by these days. Maybe just in the garden then….perhaps I could put a dvd of “Macao” on and listen to old steamship noises while Jane Russell sings “one more for the road” – and perhaps have ‘one for the garden’….
I will no longer have to share my very old and tatty lounger.
To sit on this lounger
Would be fun
So that I could soak up
A bit of the sun
Lying on a secluded beach
Out of everybody’s reach
This lounger would be great for me
And would become my sanctury
In my camper van as I tour around the country. I could lift it out and lounge anywhere I wanted. Bliss!
To win this chair would only be fair,
As the one i’ve got is hurting my bot,
It’s older than me from before ’53
Antiques Roadshow here i come to get rid of this chair that’s hurting my bum!
For some reason we only have one lounger so one of us
always sits on the grass!
We are planning to completely renew our garden layout and this steamer would add a touch of luxury
liked.. would love to win so i could sun bathe and go from white to bronze ahhh
To lie on this would be just divine
Give it to me, its gonna be mine.
I would use this to relax and admire my newly finished garden that me and my partner have done.
I would use this to relax in the garden once move there in sept it will be lovely sitting under the trees and having a bbq with family and friends
Feet up, good book, glass of vino! Mmmmm
I’d put it in pride of place in my garden so I can watch the kids playing in comfort and ease and my nosey neighbours can have a good view of my posh new chair!
such a wonderful chair would love to win it as ive just re done all my garden and all thats missing is a chair in the corner for relaxation time x
A steamer chair would be fantastic,
Made of wood and not of plastic!
To sit on on my balcony,
With a piece of cake and a cup of tea.
Or relaxing with a glass of wine,
Oh, how I wish this chair could be mine.
So help me out, oh please, oh please,
And let me relax on my balcony with ease.
Oh please, oh please, do let me win,
As I’d like to try it out before the sun goes in!!!!!
We are renovating an old Scottish house, and are looking for wooden furniture to compliment the house and garden. I can imagine myself lounging with a G&T, in the garden on a summers day
I’d like to lounge in the back garden for the rest of the summer,even if it rains I think the legs are high enough to keep me out of the puddles ;O)
I am about to move into my first bought home and my first ever home with a garden, so it would sit nicely in the garden where i plan to make the most of every minute left of summer, even if it rains!
Sitting, relaxing in the sun,
Unadulterated pleasure, gardening’s all done.
Miles away in my own little world,
Made myself comfy…feet curled.
Eating goodies, drinking wine,
Rejoice! The Sherwood Steamer Chair is mighty fine!
Its not all squishy and soft and ultra feminine
Its strong, supportive and quite masculine. I want to win!
I’d have a go at conceiving my 2nd child on this chair! Not having much luck in the bedroom/kitchen/bathroom/sofa!
just right to relax on with a book to read and an icecream…3 pleasures to enjoy
I would have it in my garden and it would forever be known as mummy’s chair. Hubby brought two garden chairs but he has one and our 2yr old daughter has nicked the other. Me I have a step. X
I would actually relax watching the clouds above, whilst staying dry indoors, for it would go up to the top of the house and be placed just under the large skylight, a room for just me, a place to relax & not have my children clambering over me which they seem to do when in the garden! It would look fab as a centre piece x
I’d sit in the sun in my bikini giving all my pensioner neighbours heart failure;-)
it’d be blooming lovely to sit on it in the sun,
and have it admired by everyone.
I can watch the birds and enjoy the fresh air
forget all my worries relaxing in style on this chair..
The perfect chair for relaxing in the sun,
For supervising his gardening,and other such fun!
I might have a cushion to avoid a stripey bum,
and a pair of earplugs to mute the shouts of “MUM!”
Under my gazebo on a warm day to relax
I would put the chair on the decking and enjoy my garden
…..does my bum look big in this ???!!!!
Sat on my decking, glass of wine in my hand
Toasting my new chair that is quite simply Grand.
oh what a awesome chair id put it in the front garden and show it off to all the neighbours to see and get jelous
ive shared on facebook,twitter @bella165 pintrest @bella165 and google + thankyou for the chance to win

Make a great way to lounge outside when the weather allows that!
On reflection, in my garden it would be perfection.
id lie on my decking that is in full sun all day and i could enjoy a cold glass of wine,xx
To lie on this would be just divine,
this chair would certainly be all mine,
chilling in the sun fully stretched out,
pulling my ‘im just too comfy pout’
as my eyes begin to close, the kids come out
and jump on me and start to shout-
i remind them the chair is all mine
i will be on it come rain or shine
I would love to win so i can sit and relax in comfort whilst my husband does the gardening.

We’ve just bought our first house and this would lush on the decking!!
A perfect chair to prop up my broken leg!
I would use the chair in my garden for a bit of peace and quiet away from the boyfriend and my son hehe x
This would be the perfect chair for me to relax on whilst commanding my minions to mow the lawn.

I’m always the ‘butt’ of jokes when I’m sitting in the garden in my dodgy old deck chair (it’s pants!) but I’d be sitting pretty if I won this fab Steamer chair. It’s chair-iffic!
new house, new garden, new chair to relax in after all that work moving
All rather Titanic – before the iceberg. At least the ice is only in the glass near this one and my deck shows no sign of sinking.
I woul lie on it in the garden with a Pimms and dream of long Cruises in the sun.
Excellent chair for dad (me)so that i can relax with a beer after tending the garden
Would use it in my garden sit in it on a sunny day

I would more than likely pop this beside my patio doors and this would be MUMS chair, no one elses! lol I have tweeted as @xcardiffbird, liked and also pinned on my pinterest board! Great competition, thanks xx
I’d put the lounger out in the garden,
and sit out in the sun
I’d read a book and catch the rays
and tan my lily white bum!
It looks lovely,I’d sit in my garden and relax with my cup of coffee
We would give it to my mum and dad for use in their garden
I’d use it to watch Poirot, they often have these in hiss stories , it would be cool to recline with a snifter and join in …not the being murdered bits of course
I would love this for relaxing on my allotment, I like to go down there to get out in the sun – I have a grassy area outside the shed by a big square flower bed – this would be ideal for relaxing between weeding!
Have liked and tweeted (and harassed you on Twitter because the form was broken hehe!)
The Sherwood Steamer Chair is mighty fine,
Perfect for relaxing with a cheeky glass of wine,
On a lazy summer’s evening when the sun is at rest,
Because that’s the part of the day I love best,
Puppy playing happily beneath the apple tree,
A dandelion munching guinea pig perched on my knee,
The neighbours staring enviously over the fence,
“Look at that chair, I bet that cost a few pence!”,
I’d smirk, lift my glass and savour the bouquet,
Then raise a toast to gardenfurniturecentre.co.uk,
I would take it with for my 3 weekly appointments on the mobile unit, locally known as The Bus, and take my needles in a leisurely state of nonchalance. I might even let the nurses have a go on it.
