Sorry, Les, I wasn't making light of the problem, just having a bit of musical fun (as this *is* in the music section). I've just typed "Parker-Knoll" into Google and found that they are still making the furniture. If you then type in a sub-search "repairs", you will find lots of companies who specifically state that they repair Parker-Knolls, including the frames. There was a company in Staffordshire, for instance, called "Imperial Upholstery". I'm sure you will find a repairer near to where you live if you do a bit of googling.

All the best,
