View Full Version : Flat Pack!
I know this is a silly post but hey, i feel excited...and yes i know this is a very sad thing to get excited about....but I just put together a dining table and chair set from Argooos! It involved spanners, screws, nuts, bolts and a drill and i did it all by myself!! first flat pack ive done and I got it right.....unless it breaks tonight [:I]
I think my fiance will be V shocked when he gets home!
If I can do it...then theres hope for EVeRYONE!!

Your anxiety is the human representation of the pictures that you paint using your many vivid colours of revolving and reoccurring thoughts.
How big is your gallery ?
Brilliant Tatty. Deciphering the instructions is usually challenging enough!

It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere.

Lol - i normally leave them all to my bloke as i could never get my head around it...but its quite nice to see that ive actually made it....it was funny tho as when he got home he was V shocked and then went round with his spanner tightening all the bolts!! hehe. He was impressed tho!
Yeah nic thats fine... I will invoice you tho! :D

Well Done Tatty B you clever girl was it the chinese instructions you understood! LOL
Mu hubby would do exactly the same make sure everything was done right make out he knew what he was doing. Walking around nodding going hmmmmm that's good dear. Just a bit loose there though tighten it up then he feels like he's done his bit! LOL
WELL DONE!
Take Care,
Love PIP'S X X
Good for you, I never try now either did when we first bought then house but as andy keeps telling me if housework is womans work then DIY and flat packs are mens work lol he cant have it everyway

Hey Tatty
Dont sound too eager and good at it or it may give him just the excuse to sit back and leave it all to you. We all know what they are like LOL
Love Sal xx
