The Worshipful Mayor of Riley Green considers himself to be the bee’s knees in DIY. When her ladyship the Mayoress ordered an Ikea Ektoplink Pine Wardrobe (double) her partner duly offered to construct it for her.
Thin
gs didn’t go 100% swingingly well, he said he was sure that there were some bits missing. Anyway in a typical resourceful manner, he & his wife boarded the Mayoral Limousine for the official opening of a new balloon shop in Bank Top, ( Bank Top Balloons for Blackburn & the World). His well prepared speech was difficult for the gathered crowd to understand since he accidently inhaled too much helium when helping to inflate a sausage shaped big one………..
In the meantime he made sure that his odd job man was well employed adjusting the Ikea parts, somewhat. First they were broken lengthways along the grain, then chop sawn to a decent kindling size and finally axed to the perfect width.
The Mayor has two year’s supply of kindling and has told his wife that Ikea have collected the wardrobe with missing parts, and they will send a replacement soon! How will he get out of that one?
