I started the task at 1pm, and - with a much-needed hour's break for fish'n'chips - just finished our second wardrobe at almost 10pm! IKEA may be cheap, but build-it-yourself flat-pack furniture is a complete and utter bastard.
Thankfully, I have been helped immensely in my task by the faboo music being played on BBC Radio 2 all day - including this rather catchy number from Prince protégé (and old fave here at Dolores Delargo Towers), Miss Janelle Monáe [whose Tightrope was one of my "Songs of the Year" in - gulp - 2010]...
One of the coolest women on the planet, methinks. I love this!
Now, to hanging the clothes in their rightful place at last...
Why is their stuff so impossibly difficult to deal with? They sell this crap by the bazillion cubic feet and have done so for a long time. Couldn't they have figured out a way to assemble it easily? I understand, the primary is to keep the price as low as possible, but is there no way to be both cheap and easy? I was.
