Unbelievable :mad:
We've spent most of today putting up the wardrobe, we were doing really well, had just got to putting the doors on when I realised we'd mixed up the top and the shelf. So we've had to take it apart again, unfortunately in the process some of the wood has split.
So tomorrow we'll have to start again - after buying some wood glue to try to stick the wood back together.
I'm so cross as we'd almost finished.
Plus I gave up a pub lunch for this

Thanks SSG and HHOD
I've got cava for tonight
Really need it after today.
I'm just so cross we were doing so well. I really didn't want to spend tomorrow on the wardrobe, I wanted to take down the Christmas decorations, have a good clean round and generally prepare for going back to work on Tuesday. I could cry with frustration
DD came home from work and accused us of breaking her dongleWe hadn't been anywhere near it.
Mr SA has gone to bed with a lemsip.
