I have snoball, there are no instructions only stoopid diagrams.... gonna take it all back, I'm a "I'll have that, that and that girl" not a "I'll have that, take it home and squib glue on it" girl ;o)
However, if I take it back that does mean I have to hi-jack another man off the street to help put it in the car again ;o)
Hey, maybe I could get a man to help assemble off the street? Not sure if thats a good idea or not!

YUP...Brockman...here's a tip for flat-pack furniture...
use the experience as a learning curve to buy it ready-assembled in
the future (lol) seriously I know what you mean,hence I don't buy the stuff.
The only thing I remember from the Ex-Mr Bunny in such situations was
to keep a hammer close by because a lot of it never
lines up properly and requires 'persuasion' and to throw the instructions to one side and use your own initiative instead, it is more successful (sometimes)
Good Luck with it!!

Brockman - You have mail....
Quite right Snoball, a hammer is not wise but neither was my Ex so
enough said (oh dear, really in silly mood, better behave and be quiet)
How are you Snowie anyway??

Well yes Bun hun, they are really heavy, ok when you buy the buggers there is someone around to load up. When I got home I had to hi-jack a man off the street to carry the things, desperately want to use another word there, in the house! Never done this before, will never do it again!
I've got a wardrobe, a chest and a bedside cabinet, wow, I lucky girlie.

Can you ring them and say now you've got them home they are too big for your home and that you haven't assembled them and could you return them??

Afternoon folks, been out for a long walk, well it seemed long so caught a bus back. Good to see you enjoying yourself Brocks, look upon it as being one of those challenges that life throws in front of us occasionally, easy on the chardonnay until it looks similar to how it is supposed to look :-))

Well it's up to you......I remember years ago we tackled a wardrobe and
it was a two person job, because it needed someone to hold the sides
whilst the other one screwed them together..sure no-one can be cornered
to help you? - seems a waste of your time and money but there again
what price sanity when dealing with flat-pack furniture??
(have another bottle of wine my friend...)
