minor things that make you fume

@Ashtonian will like this - yesterday I managed to cut my hand open...on a French stick. On the actual bread. I was trying to cut it, and whilst holding it, I sliced my thumb on a particularly spiky bit of crust.

Anyone had this happen to them? I'd go to A&E but work won't let me.

Built my sons cabin bed thing the other night, then found out his mattress is too big for it FFS

So now got to get rid of 2 mattresses and buy a new smaller one before he can sleep in the thing.

Had an injury that wasn't your fault? Call Paul and sue the ass off the baker!
I mean come on, think of all that dough.

Ever thought that DIY might not be your forte ?
Try another hobby, like knitting or something (though for god's sake use blunt needles)

the bed is up fine, just the old mattress doesn't fit, but didn't click onto the fact because his bunk bed that i dismantled was both full size mattress despite it being the same length overall

Most people would have measured the intended mattress BEFORE building the bed surely!

Equally as annoying as no lights or only sidelights in rain and fog - last time they glanced at their Highway Code was five minutes before taking their test !!

I just assumed with the bed being the same size then it would just go together.

Same size bed, smaller mattress, bit mad .

I remember looking at their graduate schemes when I finished uni and they were offering like £10k a year more than the average. I did wonder why!

Think it was like 60/70 hour weeks? I know a lad who lasted a month. Had a breakdown pretty much.

I don't get it. How exactly are they the same size, if it doesn't fit?! It clearly isn't the same size then.

Did the instructions not state the mattress size when you bought it? And did you not at least check that before you built it?

We used to have a bunk bed and this bed was the same specs, but i think because of the sides on the new bed, t makes the normal size mattress too wide for it, heance the too small.

I wasn't paying as much attention about that detail buying it, more on the can it fit in his room details instead
