IKEA update

OK!  Well the metal filing cabinet, (ERIK  £69 if you’re interested) I was trying to put together now had one plastic part which arrived broken and I tried to glue together rather than face a special trip to the returns dept of IKEA; about 8 of the metal screw fixings between 2 metal bits are too small for holes so don’t hold anything; and there are 3 metal parts which are unaacounted for and not mentionned in the instruction manual! 

I’ll have to stop with an unfinished filing cabinet and try to salvage it later.  promised my self a cup of tea and toddler a story before we have to set out to pick my son up and do TESCO!

As for the IKEA project upstairs – I hear power tools which is never a good sign in my experience!  We’ll see ….

  1. Could this be Isobel’s PROBLEM SOLVING lesson!
