What is it with women and IKEA?

[Kyajae]

My missus has just decided to drive 43 (yes 43!) miles to the nearest IKEA store and the only thing certain is that when she comes back, I'll be poorer for the experience and my bloody lounge will look even moe like something from LegoLand.

Retail therapy, my @rse!

They do delicious meatballs with lingonberry jam!

(whatever a lingonberry is).

Having watched that prog about food on 5 last night, you really really really don't want to know what a lingonberry is...

Well I didn't see it.

But it's a fruit. What can possibly be yuk about it?

Whatever it is...

And the meatballs will be worse...

You're thinking of a dangleberry - something quite different...

I need my whole house decorating ... furniture the lot.

I might rent myself out offering to take care of peoples wives and take them to IKEA so they can spend cash on useles crap.

My fees are exactly the same as what they spend

Luckily my wife has good taste and would not be seen dead in IKEA.

Tat for Chavs.

The one in Wembley is horrendous - IF you can park - the showroom has a natural flow anticlockwise around the tat as you walk in. I like walking the other way, bumping into people, avoiding screaming kids that are taking a dump on the furnitures or eating the plastic fake fruit...

...a Saturday from hell, fortunately even the wife hates going so it was a one stop wonder thank ****...

Dispaired at two kids who tried to turn on the plastic LCD fake telly...and cried when their chav production machine shouted at them it was a fake...

Good God do you mean you are people who buy their own furniture?

You're as bad as the Heseltines
