Always read instructions 1st

7 Jul 2008

Rich bought some vacuum suction cups for me.
Eagerly attached them to a certain part of my anatomy wink

They certainly vacuumed and suctioned as advertised.
After a while they got a bit ermmmmmmmmmmmm "intense" redface

Asked him to release them........then realised he hadnt read the bit about "how to release fast"
The scene was something out of faulty towers...me screaming and swearing, him frantically reading instructions. :grin:
Anyone else eagerly tried something new and not read the "how to do it properly" instructions?

I'm not laughing.......... honest!
I always read the instructions after I've seen the men in my life try and put things together thinking they know how to do it...and not listening to me when I suggest they at least check out the instructions!!
At least Rich had read some the instructions lol

:lol:
Hope your tender bits are feeling better... :lol:

Oh wow. I can only hope you laughed together later :lol2:
I bought a self assembly shed from Argos. I'm telling you I think someone somewhere was having a laugh. Apart from needing four people to hold different bits at the same time there were over three hundred screws to do up in a 6'X 3'shed. The instructions were written by a Martian three year old. The whole experience was one of scarey wonder to my wife and children and one of dismay, violence, anguish, elation and in the end relief to me.

Behind every man is one of us females saying........
Are you sure it cant be done the other way?
Im sure it doesnt look like that in the catalogue.
Maybe if i helped you ?
Okay, i will shut up but when my way turns out to be the proper way to do it.
Typical male, leaves all the mess for me to clean up,
oops sorry dear i didnt know you needed those vital 24 nuts and bolts that i threw away and then cleaned out the cat litter tray, rabbit and guinea pigs hutches.

Since people-instructions are so often lost in transport, they are now available on said person - in Braille. You'll need to get the outer wrappings off and start feeling your way down the appliance to locate the area where the instructions are stored - happy reading biggrin
