Blimey bigmamma - hello hun xx - is there no end to your talents?!!

[Jugglering]

Hussy - this is oh so not the correct attitude !

Come on lass - think again !

(1) You have in front of you a *challenge* not a *problem*

(2) These flat packs have already had all the "interesting* bits done (like holes have been pre-drilled in the right place and screws, nuts, bolts etc put into little plackie bags along with the gubbins...

(3) Unpack everybit and lay them all out on the floor, putting the screws, nuts, bolts etc etc to one side.

(4) Try to imagine where each bit fits together

THEN .... and only then... look at the instructions

Try to follow the instructions mentally (but don't actually do the assembling yet, just imagine which bit goes where). Then start at stage one of the instructions, making sure you follow each stage exactly.

If you convince yourself that YOU are brilliant and can do this, then you will achieve a gorgeous piece of assembled furniture.... If not, email Chuck or me.... lol
