Homeward Bound

One for planning. Get yourself a Stanley knife, work out your nearest tip/recycling place. You'll have a heck of a lot of cardboard to dispose of and it's worth 10 minutes of your time with a Stanley knife to cut it into smaller pieces to fit into your car easily.

My son moved into a flat a couple of years ago and I helped him buy and assemble stuff first weekend. The packaging got a bit overwhelming at first until I started to break it up and dispose of it as we went along. Just emptying and leaving it took over the flat so we had to have a bit more order about it.

That aspect surprised me, you'll have way more than your wheelie bins can cope with.

thanks just checked the contents of Stanley branded toolkit I bought & it doesn't have the synonymous knife! I'll add box cutter to the list...

If it’s not going to be long term I would suggest cheap options.
IKEA or similar probably your best bet.

I’m loving the suspense.
Are you going to be the new starter at St Andrews?

If that is it I have always liked you

Yeah just looking at a cheap bed frame on amazon that's half what I was looking at
This bed will end up in the spare room when we eventually move to a 2bed place getting little to no use, so don't want rubbish but don't need anything pricey either
