How much does putting together IKEA furniture suck?!

There obviously should be some kind of service were ppl came to your house and did this.

Perhaps something for you NITEFLY?

Uh YEAH, no kidding? I don't know how it is out by you, but they are so cheap at the US stores that they don't even include NAILS AND BOLTS!!!! Then half the time, the boxes have missing parts. Maddening.

Yup, there's people in London who assemble flat pack furniture for a living. Assume the service is used mainly by old people and the like

I rediscovered the bag of books you lent the current and I last night. Carry on and I'll do my usual trick of dowsing them in beer!
