Just say NO to Ikea

Me, Mr S and mum all went to Ikea at Lakeside this Sunday, much against my better judgement. I knew it was going to be off-the-scale hellish when we couldn't find a parking space for all the Shoguns with baby on board stickers. Even saw one with 'triplets on board' -- nothing like telling the world just how fertile you are. We only went for inspiration and catalogues and came home with neither. According to Mr S it was my fault he left the catalogues at the checkout because I went off to try and and buy a bottle of water, leaving him to struggle with paying for a pack of chopsticks and a photo frame.
