<applauds wildly> i needed help with an Ikea chair <keeps clapping> and Serenity (who works there) offered to buy me one and post it to me! <wolf whistles> HOW COOL IS SHE? And how cool is MN? <jumps up and down>

[AitchTwoOh]

seriously, this blooming kids' chair has been out of stock in Scotland for months, and i was looking for alternatives on here...

up pops the wonderful Serenity (who Will Not provide me with her address so that i can send a wee something of thank you) to offer to check stock availability where she works, she explains what the issue is and then IN HER OWN TIME goes back into work ON HER DAY OFF to get it, package it up and lug it to the Post Office.

that is freaking unbelievably kind of her, is it not?

aren't MNers amazing?!

PMSL Shizaru

Appropriate, I thought.

I was going to be Iwazaru, but, I fear it may have been hypocritical.....

Hurrah for Serenity and MN

is that you, Shizaru..
Did you like my shizaru ad on the other thread?
why are you near Edmonton IKEA?!
I am near Edmonton IKEA!

Sorry, how lovely of Serenity. Really lovely.

lovely of serenity

WE DON'T EVEN HAVE BLARDY IKEA HERE

and I miss it

dh and I love going on our own

we chat

its nice

that there is somewhere on the planet that doesn't have Ikea. I thought it was like McDonalds & Coca-Cola. Blardy everywhere.

You're welcome.
Well, you threatened me with something embarrassing on MN! It was no big deal, honestly. I'd already promised DD an IKEA lunch - downside of Nursery is we don't get to go for breakfast anymore.
(Wii hand starting to hurt -want PC back ) Go to IKEA more now I work there due to joy of staff discount.......

serenity is well cool

I lost ds in Ikea once (nightmare, nightmare) The staff were very good and helpful etc but it still took horrendously long heart-stopping time to find him - he'd climbed into bunk bed with star canopy and gone to sleep

Waves to anyone going to Ikea Lakeside on Sunday

FMV I had to wrestle dd out of an Ikea bed once - "But Mummy I want to go to sleeeeeeep" - she was even cuddling an Ikea teddy bear she'd found on a display (she has an identical one at home).

Lots of amused glances from passers by

Really onebat???? North or south of the circ?

serenity that was EXTREMELY kind of you and reading about it has made me very happy

has nobody been to the ikea in wembley? Not only is it massive it is literally a 15 minute drive from.....wait for it. Brent cross! And brent cross has a topsy turvey for dcs!

Serenity rocks.

Thats really very kind of you Serenity.

What a lovely thing to do

Well done Serenity.

God I blardy love MN.

E17, Shizaru. (you are who I think you are, arent' you?)

I dont know....am I?

I'm about 5 miles NW from you then. Just inside M25. And much closer to Ikea

MN is fab

are you a .. letters-y.. kinda gal?
as well as a crotch-clutching monkey..
