Behold

I've turned a new corner in my life. I've found the very reason to be. Please all bow down and worship the one and only god that is... Ikea.

Now that we're properly stationed in our new home I thought it only fitting to make my first ever trip to Ikea to buy some furniture so that we no longer feel like squatters. The place is amazing. We bought a bed for sixty quid. And it's only collapsed twice since Sunday which I think is pretty impressive. We've got new shelves, new bedside cabinets, blinds, AND we ate lunch there and it only cost about 3p and a conker.

It's one of those places that once you've learnt the rules you can feel incredibly arrogant and laugh at people who don't know where the warehouse is. To guide you through the showroom there are arrows on the floor like in a carpark. These I followed religiously, barking "obey the arrows!" every time my boyfriend seemed to stray from the fold.

I am seriously considering moving out of my brand new place and just sleeping in one of the beds on the showroom floor.

Have you got a BILLY Bookcase? Everyone has those. Stupidly cheap without looking like its made of cardboard.
