Natasha and Gosia met up in Richmond today to help Mrs J put together a new bed 🛏. Due to health problems, she is not longer able to move / carry heavier things by herself. Nevertheless, she was offering us a helping hand and advise whenever she could 😊.

After a short welcome, we quickly began tackling a task not spending too much time on finding the instructions 📋😎. We started with the main part of the bed, installing the wheels (with a hammer and a 'golden touch' technique) and clipping two halves of the bed together.

Then, it was a time for the 'heaviest' part 🏋️‍♂️ so laying down a mattress (which looked really nice and comfy so we both complemented Mrs J for making this amazing purchase 👌). Once this task was done, we grabbed a headboard and... accidentally found instructions. Actually, this was a right time to get some guidance as installing a handboard needed a bit of thinking to get it all right.

Eventually we have made it, fullfilling all the requests and recommendations from Mrs J. She seemed to be very pleased with the final outcome. She may have few other tasks to do in her house so  promised to think what these are and let GG know.

There was a lot of foil, cardboard and other parts of packaging so - before heading off - we helped in getting rid of them using the local recycling bins. Full service 👩‍🔧👩‍🔧👌.
