Re: DIY Dummies

I heard that some gentlemen pretend not to be able to do things properly so they don't get asked again! Could this be true?

I'm always willing to have a go at DIY, trouble is Phyllis won't let me so I stick to doing my own thing in the shed, the only thing I say to her when she gets a chap in to do things is "When it goes wrong my dear don't ask me to fix it, get your mr wonderful back to do it", I am a dab hand at the flatpack stuff though and I quite enjoy it, the bits I always have left over I just tell her they are 'Spares' and all legs on flatpack tables have to be slightly tilted, it's the new EU law.
What about IKEA stuff then Jem?

I get more than a little anxious when I've buit the bloody thing yet I've got two or three widgets & doodahs that don't seem to go anywhere yet I've followed the rather bizarre instructions implicitly......

I keep checking it out for weeks - is it leaning left / right more than it should?.........stevmk2
