IKEA On A Miserable Day

To say that today is miserable is an understatement.

I needed to go to IKEA to pickup a shelf and after a breakfast at Carluccio’s in Upper Street, I got a 341 bus to the store in Tottenham. It was another big red taxi, with a personal driver.

I even had the upstairs lounge all to myself. Although the view wasn’t up to much.

I did get to IKEA in a reasonable time, as the roads weren’t that busy. I did speak to a friend by phone on the journey, who was tending to his father’s grave in a woodland cemetery in the rain. I think I got the better bargain.

At least coming home with my shelf, the empty bus meant I had no problems about where to put it.

But then there always seems to be space for parcels on the 341 from IKEA.  Perhaps most people take the easy option and drive.  Although this guy didn’t with a chair.

I should also say that the LACK shelf I bought was an ideal product to buy in the rain, as it comes tightly wrapped in plastic.
