At risk of upsetting the GNers of the male persuasion again (I know they were upset yesterday!) I casually asked my DH to put up some shelves in our bedroom. Well you would have thought I'd asked him to build the Great Wall of China or something! He huffed and puffed and tutted and said that there was no need for shelves in the bedroom. Why did I want them now? I replied that I thought it would be nice to have some to put my perfumes/jewellery etc. on. I then said it would be a nice little project for him to which he replied that he'd think of his own projects thank you very much. Bad move, so I then tried the well if you won't do it I'll do it myself tactic. I know he hates me saying this as he always thinks I'll mess things up and he'll have to sort it out in the end. After this threat he came round a bit. I had no intention of doing it myself btw! Devious creatures us women sometimes! To end the story he said that he'd do it when Ikea opens and we can get some from there. To which I replied that B&Q, Wickes etc. are open now and they sell shelves. More face pulling and huffing. Stalemate atm! Annoying thing is when he puts his mind to it he's quite good at DIY. I'll keep you informed if I get my shelves ladies
