We went to Ikea in Milton Keynes to get some things for our home and I could not believe the bargains we picked up. My daughter is off to university and needs lots of household stuff. We got some lovely white bowls, plates and mugs for just 19 pence each! They were a very nice design and as well as getting some for her I stocked up on 'spares' for my own kitchen.
We got a lovely chest of drawers for our son's bedroom and they had some fantastic fabrics. best of all I got a huge bag of mini Dime bars - delicious!
We had lunch there too and the food was fantastic quality and very cheap.
As for the loos - I've never seen cleaner toilets - not even in the Dorchester Hotel.
Good day out all in all.
That sounds like my idea of a good day out! I haven't been to Ikea in ages as we haven't got one for miles around but there are rumours that we are getting one soon....
Which Uni is she going to Oldspice?
Huh! I was slated on here before for saying their meatballs were lovely and told instead to make my own!
Mmmmmmmmm, lingonberry sauce!
Ruth is going to Northampton to study Paramedic Sciences. It is one of only a handful of universities that run the course. There were hundreds of applicants for only 30 places so she did very well to get a place. The biggest hurdle was her age. She is still 17 (18 next week) and you cannot work as a Paramedic until you are 21. She will be 21 by the time she qualifies but most applicants on the course are older.
She also had to pass her driving test and apply for a catergory C provisional licence so she can start learning how to drive an ambulance.
3 months after you visited in which of your identities?
I only have one, you!
Good luck Ruth!
Thanks Knighty
Good luck Ruth!
She has done really well

Hey! did I say I liked necrophilia?!
I will refrain from replying on the grounds that this is not the adult thread.

You calm down dear. You're not doing your blood pressure any good.
Have a Werther's Original.
Is there an echo in here...here......here....here?
Oooh not at this time of night Dearie, I've already taken my teeth out!
<takes a deep breath>
Nope. I won't go there!
No! It's about Ikea and bargains there in.
Just cos you've forgotten.
You're right, we should get this thread back on track.
Where is Pandapants when she's needed?
Mmmmm! Hot dots. They are so filling!
Yes the free refills are good.
So is Princess Tarta!
but when you can't drive, you can't get there.
Ikea will send a free coach to you if you can fill it. I organise trips there twice a year and can always find a bunch of people from work who will go.
There's always plenty of space for all our stuff, well as long as we don't all buy a sofa each
Do you remember Blakey in ON The Buses?
That's 623.
