Never a truer word spoken, but the packaging on the two outdoor storage/seating items that Ms S wanted built today had "Quick and Easy" flashed across it, so she was confident I'd be able to get them built today with no trouble at all.

The constructing part wasn't actually too difficult, requiring only the use of a screwdriver to lock everything together once a bit of force had been applied to push the various plastic lugs in place, and for once the instructions actually made sense and weren't in minuscule print.

The challenge was finding enough floor space in Ms S's patio to build the items - but once we'd overcome that challenge, the units took shape as expected, and provide Ms S with a significant amount of extra weatherproof outdoor storage space, and a place to sit too.
