Just finished putting together the playmobile advent calendar...

[MercyDulbottle]

Took nearly an hour...

trembles and sobs with relief

Did not realise they needed putting together

Not bothering now

I thought they all came with the right toy in the right box iyswim

oh, no, no, no, you must MAKE THE BOXES and put the right teeny tiny bits into each one!

Noooooooooooo, don't tell me that now. I'm sure mine says it is made already so have had several glasses of wine and now incapable of creating.

I will check.

Checked.
Mine says it has new pre-filled boxes - PHEW!!!!

glitch - are you me??!!

I though mine were pre made too. I have also had

I've just had a quick look on Amazon, some of them are ready made up, so you might be OK

wishes had known this before, kicks self

I have the dinosaur one and it was pre made. But putting up the wee background scene was like a Krypton Factor test!

Then my DC dared to touch it and some of the bits unslotted from their slots. So I beat them.

Me too, I am sweating!

At least DS's was pre filled, I thought I was going to have to do two!!

I am a bit worried as we seem to have an extra box, that doesn't have anything to go in it. What am I meant to do with it, does anyone know? It's the Christmas in the park one.

we've got the father christmas letters one - pre-filled thank f%%&%. Had a knights one a couple of years ago with the bloody boxes and it drove me to distraction.

The slots keep popping out of mine now as well so I have sellotaped the buggers

I have a knight one for DS

and one with lots of ponies in for DD

don't know if they are pre filled

are you mad! Dont leave it til tommorow morning - check now! The non-prefilled one took me about 3 hours to get ready and even this years pre-filled one took agood hour trying to slot it all together and get it to stay

Just had a panic that I had to actually had to do anything them - hVe one each for DSs & it's now midnight have had half bottle of wine!!!! Luckily I checked them & they are prefilled but construction of background scenery will have to wait until tomorrow!
