... but if you don't, the Brown-Mice trended/styled up a little last week.
I've seen, gloated over, desired
Anglepoise Lamps for years.

You know the ones, like the little Pixar logo *boing, boing, boing*.

And something just snapped the other day, "
fuck it" I thought, "
I'll just BUY some".
A little light googling found the UK site but try as I might I could not get my payment accepted! It fair drove me bonkers.
Then, I discovered a place that sells them right here in Sydney, a discrete phone call was made and a nice young lady arranged for 2 to be delivered to Mr Brown's office before the week's end.
Any you know what? About $20 cheaper than shipping them in from the UK including the £160 shipping fee! Win!
Delivered they were, as promised.

A little light assembly was required. And the instructions did not lie, that base is one weighty bastard.

Of course there's an obligatory Tigger-in-a-box picture, what did you expect?

Tigger is Mr Brown's most ardent assistant, removal was required.

And here they are, Mr Brown's (
which required his taking the electrical bits apart and reassembling so it would work. Easier than taking it back to sway between 10 and 4 on a Saturday).

And mine.

From a reclining Mouse point-of-view!

Always fun to get something you have hankered for for a long time. Satisfaction at last.
I did see this in your Twitter stream, but I hadn't made the Pixar connection!
Duh!
They really are very nifty!

I love them so much. Wait till you see my bedside lamps, fun-kay! We did what you did: Just GET them!
Happy rabbits in the second-to-last photo.
OOOOOOh very nice. I shall have to snap a picture of ours. Peter has had it since he was at college and it's bright red.
We could start a trend! ;o)
Nice lamps. Now I want one. Drat. And you know, cats are an essential part of the assembly process. Couldn't be done without them, really.
that is some clutter mouse...
Clutter? What clutter?
