    If I was a builder and there was a wardrobe in the middle of the living room I would be tempted to look inside it.

  • You would be shocked at what builders get up to when they think nobody is home :mad:

    I could call the book. The builders, the living room and the wardrobe?

    As you are making this up a better title would be 'The lying, witch in the wardrobe'.

    This only works if your female ( otherwise you would be a wizard).

    Why did you have to borrow your neighbour's wardrobe?

    Don't you have a wardrobe of your own?
    We used the excuse that the neighbours bedroom had sprung a leak and to prevent the formation of toxic mould on the wooden goods we stored them in our living room whilst the bedroom dried out. I did try fit into the chest of drawers but after about an hour it was soon discovered that the wardrobe was the best place to hide :)

    They were curious and talked about it but i had prepared for that. Inside the wardrobe i was hidden with a paint brush and a tin of paint so if they did look inside. voi la hi lads dont mind me i'm just painting the wardrobe :D

    And your neighbours agreed with this rather odd plan to move their furniture to your house?

    They sounds pretty silly to me.
    I'm sure you'll be able to convince them that it's not your responsibility to replace the wardrobe.

    Wouldn't that be a warlock?
