"Thank you. After selling furniture for many years, this was the first furniture show i have been to. I found it most impressive, it was good to see so many other choices that are available to us. Being a country store way up in Townsville Queensland, we sometimes dont see trends that may be happening elsewhere." John Bradley Featuring Lazboy Gallery
