I was tidying out the kitchen drawers and found a load of old bills/paperwork etc, so decided to have a shredding session. The flex on the shredder doesn't reach to the comfort of the sofa, so I sat on the foot-stool instead.

It would seem I was sitting somewhat lop-sided, as after about five minutes, the legs of my tuffet gave way:



I've had a look and it appears to be unrepairable.

Bugger.

Jubilee clips and duct tape my friend, all pouffe style didasters can be overcome with this combo.

I do not have fat legs. They are lithe and muscular.

Don't dispair. It looks like you've acquired a luxurious carpet stretcher and some beautiful shelf brackets.

FYI, I am on a low/no carb diet. And it's going really well. I can nearly see my feet.

That's a foot-stool, not a pouffe. Which I think you've deduced from your errant misuse of said furniture. smile

You shouldn't laugh, you've just admitted to 'pissing yourself' to a bunch of strangers because some fat bloke broke his pouffe....

He broke his poof, whilst breaking his footstool... That's how I read it anyway.
