IN today came 2 high backed dining chairs for the kitchen to replace the existing ones which have saggy bottoms 
We bought the old chairs in 1975 in St Ives, Cornwall where the inlaws lived at the time. They were pine with a woven ?rush seat. Sad to say, after 48 years, the seats have sagged and I've been sitting on 3 cushions so that my bottom doesn't sag into the hole. I'm not skilled enough to redo the seats so the chairs have been broken up as firewood and the seats have been dismantled and will be used as kindling. There was a scary amount of dust trapped in the seats!
