On a less blustery, wet day than last week, Sallyann and Matthew went to P's flat to finish off the work we started last Friday, constructing flat pack furniture for her to put her clothes in. Last week we spent all of the time putting together a dining table and chairs. This week we started with what Matthew thought would be the more difficult task of putting together the wardrobe but it was the chest of drawers that took longer. Having both agreed that we wanted to get the job done we stayed a little longer and it was immensely satisfying to finish the task, and we made surprisingly few mistakes and the furniture we still standing by the time we left. P had had the flatpack furniture since the start of the year and so she was chuffed that we had finished. We even managed to take the rubbish away from her flat for carers to dispose of.
