Q. What's the connection between xxxxx and MFI?
A. One loose screw and the whole cabinet falls apart.

I have to confess to installing a couple of MFI kitchens in my time and was always surprised at the number of spare screws left over at the end. I'm sure they were meant to go somewhere!

My nearest used to be Reading. When the store first opened it brought the M4 exit to a halt and they to give the store it's own exit lane from the motorway.

I totally understand the logic of waiting a couple of months to ease up. I may like some of the ikea stuff but not that much!

It was fence paint - out of stock in store. Very efficient indeed. I was pleased with the service.

Have you any local sawmills? They may sell bark/wood chips. Usually loads cheaper than the shops.

I went to the Leeds one yesterday afternoon, about 4pm and only queued for 10 minutes to get in. Have to go back tomorrow as something we need wasn’t in stock, hope we’re as lucky again with the queuing.

Visited Bristol branch on Wednesday, no queues at all, parked easier than ever, good social distancing practiced in the store and lots of hand gel stations around. I was impressed.
