"Ello Picture, we'd like to borrow £25,000, how much is that a month?......."£4,500, well that's a lot less than we're paying now!

Nope, Whirls, t'wasn't Ian. Twas the hubby-at-the-time (whose answer to everything was to bugger off to the pub). Ian would have:

(a) never bought anything from MFI

(b) paid someone to sort it.

See you at Amanda's do. Must get back - I've left a sausage on a stick.

See you soon, hun

Classic, Whirls - MFI - made for idiots - hadn't heard that one before but can identify.....

I was one of those idiots the day that Andrew and Fergie got married. Took delivery of a cabin bed for what was (at the time) smallish daughter. Moved contents of her bedroom onto the upstairs passage, my bedroom, the bathroom, halfway down the stairs. Even bits in the kitchen.

Not to worry, I'll have this assembled in a couple of hours. Cos it says so on the packet.



The proceeded to lay out the bits. How many of those xxxxxxx things can there be?

"Take a bradawl"

first problem, not a clue what a bradawl is. Never mind, a bent screwdriver'll do instead........ (bent screwdriver's are invaluable in opening tins of paint, but not a substitute for this mythical "bradawl", let me tell you)

To cut a long, boring story short, daughter finally went to sleep on a mattress on the upstairs landing, I nearly skewered then-husband with the "bradawl" and he buggered of to the pub.

Last seen in floods of tears amongst 230 bits of mdf and a zillion screws.
