Wish me luck I'm going where most 'men' fear to tread...

[TumbleflumpDancingBum]

I think I will need it..

Where ?

?

The annual convention of the League Against Transvestites?

Obviously to the bathroom armed with cleaner - IME a man-free area if ever there was one

IKEA ???????????

The perfume counter at Selfridges?
A decent quality jewellers?

Kaysleighbells

A craft shop?
asking for directions from a stranger?

Oh we're talking about men, not 'men'

I am actually tackling a flat pack.... a computer hideaway, its been on the dining room floor for two weeks and I keep stubbing my toes on it..so this week I am off and I will put it together so far I have set everything out on the floor and screwed in some knobs and am pondering the next step

Ballet lessons?

I was very close then

Shall we start taking bets on how many screws you will be missing at the end ?!

If were you I'd assemble it with me and a bottle of rum on the inside and not come out til Jan 2nd. Happy knob twiddling!

Done the next bit, this is easy, why do men make a fuss [runs for cover as she will probably be eating her words at the end] only 10 pages to go...

Because they never follow the instructions and do everything in the wrong order and then find a key bolt that should have been inserted in hole 6B
I think.

they seem to think that following instructions is somehow emasculating

my colleague and i had a race to see who could assemble their ikea office chair the fastest

he was beating me and about to start crowing when it transpired he'd put the seat on back to front so when he tilted the seat it tipped him on the floor

Flat packs are a Pink Job in the Dragon household. Unless it gets to the stage where brute force is needed.

women are good at flat pack because we tend to follow instructions one at a time

men on the other hand just get out all there electric tools and think the instructions are for sissys

I think I need an octopus....Its hard to make it stay up right whilst I'm putting the screws in....that sounds dirty!....

Do you have an automatic screwing device*? They're useful.

*electric screwdriver that is.

No it's all by hand

aha a hand job - they're always hard work

My Hands are sore now, wish I did have a electric screw driver....its looking ok but I'm not sure I'm doing it right..

does your drill have a screwdriver attachment?

Mine does, but it's so bulky I usually just do it by hand anyway

This stupid instructions must have been written by a man two panel almost identical but one has more holes than another, (top)+(bottom) one picture shows one on the top another picture shows it at the bottom, which one....fgs must be a man drawing..
