I need to source a single good sized round rock (to paint up as a pet) my usual walks to work etc aren’t passing any gardens with such to steal. Cunning thoughts?

I found an original LP of the Lawrence of Arabia movie score. It's a bit crackly but that's because it's been in a bad record sleeve. I have a huge supply of special sleeves now and all my LPs are carefully cleaned, the sleeves replaced and the cardboard cover cleaned and repaired if need be. The humidity of the room is still a bit low tho, that cause crackle too so I must water the pot plant.

Can anyone recommend a decent bean bag?

I have wanted one for ages -just need a bit of flexible seating for the apartment. But I don't really like the super synthetic material+polystyrene options and if I search for anything "eco friendly" I am looking at hundreds of dollars... Not keen on second hand (and I tend to keep things for YEARS).

Many years go, when beanbags were first popular back in the 70s, I made one from corduroy. Lasted for quite a few years and was very comfortable. Would recommend getting a cheapie of the right shape from Kmart, ripping it along the seams and use the pieces for a pattern. Interior slightly smaller bag to hold the beans recommended. Then the outer bag can be washed as required. Linen for the outer bag would be nice, and very durable.
