Member? I want to nuke the place. :rotfl:

How do I sign up? At the place? :think:

There is usually someone in orange (the top, not the fake tan - although you did say you were in Essex didn't you? so they may blend from top into complexion) at the entrance with a couple of stands.

Really pleased to see you have decided to take the flat.

Hope your IKEA trip went/goes well. Haven't been to one of the stores here in the UK yet (have been passed the Wembely one), but used to go there back in Oz with a friend. Always managed to buy things I didn't need.

I'm back. Alive.

It wasn't too bad. A hell of a long way round though! :rolleyes:

Spent about £60. Got all my crockery! :T

Got a lamp. A dish or something. Some other bits that I can't remember.

But I won't be rushing back soon! :rotfl:

I haven't read the whole thread SS so sorry if this has been mentioned before,but re Ironing-I hate ironing and used not to be very good. Now I put everything on hangers to reduce creases,but the best thing I ever did was buy a decent steam geberator iron. Takes half the time,and the results (for me anyway) look much more professional. I still don't exactly enjoy ironing,but as it takes less time and looks good at least I'm not left with the feeling 'why did I bother' or 'what a waste of time!'

Did you do the lakeside Ikea SS?
I have to work myself up to going and normally twin with a visit to costco and the 'next' outlet shop,that's the only thing that makes it palatable for me!

I did sadly yes. :rotfl:
