That's terrible, how do you drink tea?:lol:

Firmly curled up and tucked away so not to get stuck in anything. I learnt my lesson very quickly.

If you have a few hours to kill, the best thing at Ikea is the free show.....

We often grab a hot dog and sit outside the store on the bench near the customer loading area and play "guess if it will fit in their car". Its absolutely hilarious watching some bloke trying to fit three flat pack wardrobes and a pot plant into his Audi TT!!!

(Oh yes, and we also had a bedside table that had two left hand sides and we had to queue at returns for an hour and a half, resulting in an Ikea amnesty for about three years)

When my oldest daughter was a baby, she puked every single time we went to IKEA.
