NZ Post is working weekends...I can't be trusted with anything to do with tools - a while ago I bought one of those kitset bookcases...had to get sweetie darling no.2 to come & show me which bit to do what with first.
I bought me a cushion box so I can stash the chair seat pads near the outdoor chairs instead of having to find indoor space. The trick with these assemble yourself boxes is to hit the carefully positioned pieces hard with the side of a hammer to make them click together. Lady level hard that it. Makes a lovely noise and is very satisfying. Good solid box it is too, now. I can sit on it with no worries and I am not a lightweight.
So, today tmmb, I am grateful for the ability to online shop direct from the source, and save myself retailer mark ups!
I did eventually manage it but alas its not up to the weight of quite so many books & has developed a bit of a bow in the middle. It would, wouldn't it.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
