Flat Pack Assembly

Well, it makes a lot of sense. Let them spit curses at B&Q, IKEA and all their creations, for a change, while us blokes are pressing dried flowers.

Wardrobes often need two pairs of hands to assemble, so a pair of girl guides would have the edge over a bloke on his own.

You missed out my usual option, though I do a lot of DIY in the house.

I can't be arsed to get my tools out :-)

The new central heating boiler was one and the second was the new 1 1/2 bathroom improvement. I just sloping shouldered it and left others to do it. I did my own kitchen about 10 years ago and I remember spending about half a day working out the waste pipe work under the double sink and the dishwasher out flow.

The installation of lots of extra sockets, moving the gas hob location all went to plan and were very easy. As was the rest of the job.

Over the years, I have realized that some jobs do not prove a problem, but the odd one or two can have some very nasty surprises. Or am I getting too old for this sort of work?

Probably :-(

That sounds like a video recorder I bought quite a few years ago.

It was two weeks after I bought it, that I could write instructions down for my wife to program it to record something.

I am a licensed radio amateur and of my two main radios, one is menu driven and the other has either a switch, button or control knob to alter the settings. Guess which is the easier to drive?

More detail please.

You want to get me locked up?

Somehow I think those Swedish furniture catalogues are missing an opportunity here...

If they work in the Leeds area you could pass them on to me john(at)ledgerj(dot)freeserve(dot)co(dot)uk
