I couldn't build it last year so have only just got round to it and they've delivered 2 of one pack and none of the legs.

WTF am I meant to do and how do I tell DH?

Have emailed B&Q in disgust but don't expect them to do anything.

Oh dear.

Oh no!

hunkermunker · 01/07/2006 13:57

When you say you couldn't build it last year, is that because you were pregnant with your secret baby?

Yes. HM. And part of the garden needed levelling.

WTF am I going to do?? Am hoping my clever dad can make legs for it.

Should I be hiding?

hunkermunker · 01/07/2006 14:01

B&Q might just surprise you [optimistic]

Other than that, look on eBay? They sell all kinds of mad things on there.

SoupDragon · 01/07/2006 14:03

Why should you be hiding, Xena Do you work for B&Q dispatch?

I'll be very surprised if B&Q sort this one out.

Did you get it when I posted the link to it on here?

SoupDragon · 01/07/2006 14:29

Probably. It's not your fault B&Q are cr*p though .

Sigh.

Have calmed down a bit since speaking to my dad. He seems unfazed by the thought of buying the right size timber, planing it and then fitting the other bits to it.

mutter mutter.

Probably some poor s*d got 2 packs of legs ! Sorry not much help to you ...

SoupDragon · 01/07/2006 15:38

Ah, but with 2 sets of legs and no swing beams you can at least build the damn thing and use it.

SOb!

Dads are wonderful. bet your dad'll fix it for you.

SparklyGothKat · 01/07/2006 17:20

noooo lol!!!! I am pretty sure that my dad checked the boxes and made sure that there was different numbered boxes.

SoupDragon · 01/07/2006 17:24

I thought I'd checked mine too though...

I really should be past the stage of needing my dad to fix stuff for me !!

They sell the pieces of wood needed for the ben nevis etc in our B and Q.
There was a million and one complaints on money saving expert about B and Q and these playcentres.
They might send you a credit note or something to get the legs?

SoupDragon · 01/07/2006 18:25

Sounds promising. I guess at least the bits I'm missing are just bog standard posts and not the more complicated shaped/screwed together bits. It's just so irritating that I discover this after a whole year!
