I've just single handedly manhandled 14 sofas, 10 chairs and 7 coffee tables through the tills at Ikea.

I was in the place 4 hours even though I knew exactly what I wanted and where it was.

I'm knackerd

I'm torn between saying "why?", and screaming "shiny", and rushing off to order one myself ;-)

[kiwi-dan.livejournal.com]

The "Why" is it suits my Pith Helmet and in case I need to dissolve 7/9ths of an African Elephant in 10 earth seconds. The screaming is being done by my bank manager. :)

Is it too late to get membership and a hotel room at Orbital?

[littlemissjane.livejournal.com]

NOT TOO LATE!

Come - it'll be fun. Email Rita direct with any queries or check out the website.

It's possible to join on the door too!

Okay I'm coming to Orbital. :)
Got a weekend pass and booked 3 night at the London Heathrow Marriott Hotel as it looks like the Radisson is full.

[gaspodex.livejournal.com]

Cancel the marriot and email us directly - Reet has a room organised for you ...

[kiwi-dan.livejournal.com]

Thanks Gaspodex. I've e-mailed Reet that I'll gladly accept the room.

[littlemissjane.livejournal.com]

Excellent!

The Radisson has been very full for sometime, but it looks like someone has sorted you out.

See you - and about 1,000 other people - there!

Have we any idea what we're going to do with all this stuff afterwards?

[gaspodex.livejournal.com]

a few in fact ...
1. Offer to attendees.
2. Charity - Saimt Lukes said they should be able to take them
3. Possile reuse - depends on cost of a storage unit

This lot have offers from £1.

£1 for what I'm not sure.
But even if thats per day then it's not insurmountable. (£30 a month is not evil when you consider that the furniture cost £1700 and we might need it again... maybe... in a couple of years like... ;))

Maybe people could take stuff home to look after it until you need it again? If they break it, they could get a replacement or something. It would be chaeper than storage.

What did happen to the sofas in the end?? The sofas worked really well and seemed in good condition after the con.
