Fancy a seat at the bus stop?


I took this photograph just before Christmas. I was waiting at the bus stop and thought that someone had dumped their sofa. I was surprised as it was in quite good condition. I was suprised that someone would actually place it in the bus shelter. 

It was only when I saw that the bus stop on the other side of the street also had a sofa that I realised that it was in fact sponsored by Ikea. And no, I didn't connect the Ikea advertising on the side of the bus stop with the sofa. The sofa actually had a price tag on it.

Unfortunately it was drizzly and about -2c. The sofa felt cold.

  1. Goodness, I wonder what sort of sales pitch it would be to have a soggy sofa on display...
