When you move from a house with all built in storage and shelving, to one with next to none there's going to be a certain amount of furniture building.

When you build four wardrobes and six sets of shelves in one long, hot afternoon, you need one of these.

In our house I have responsibility for Yorkshire puddings, brushing Katherine's hair and assembling flat pack furniture. Mr B looks on with shivers of horror as I get out the instructions, sort out all the little bolts and screws and set to work. I quite like it really.
