Belated Gratitude

So thanks to the Ikea website, here's an image of my new bedframe. It occured to me that I forgot to mention in my previous post all the help I got in putting it together.

First of all, both Sarah and Charlie did me the massive favour of getting up early and catching public transport to be here so they could receive the delivery. Then Sarah went the extra mile of putting together the exterior frame - a very heavy and difficult job that I more than likely wouldn't have been able to do myself!

When I got home in the evening I set to finishing it off, and ended up pulling Ashley, Carol and Ben into my room to help (without meaning to, I swear!). Ashley helped me with the metal supports while Ben - like a man possessed! - set up the slats for me. Carol gave invaluable input as project chief.

So all of this is to say thank you very much to everybody, and that my gratitude knows no bounds. It's thanks to you all that I'm not sleeping in amongst a garbage heap of broken Ikea components!
